          I'll kick of the voting this morning and go with Rich's shot. Made me think of a song from Rush. A guy sure could fit a lot of Barchettas in that barn.

            Burque73. Great all round pic that captures the essence of farming and the colour of the wood and sky. It has life.

                  Easy for me this week, got to vote for Storm 64's Amber Waves of Grain. By far most patriotic plus it depicts my longest day ride and bike. 1980 I rode 858 mi., Norene TN. to Tologa OK., on my "78" spoked wheeled GS1000 to work the summer with a wheat harvest (Amber Waves of Grain) crew. One of my best summers ever.

                    THanks for doing the summation, Bob.
                    I was up a little earlier than usuall, and made an attempt at figuring out the multiquote, but didnt make much progress before had to run out the door, .... you know, all my important appointments that I have.


                    ..and.... for your picture when you stopped along side of the road to pose your roadside picture, did you tell her to "hop" off.....?

                      Many interesting pics this week, all showing something of "farm", and more than one really good pic, I thought. A couple especially great pics. Special comment for Glen Dorkburger.
                      (Glen, I am suspecting that you brought some light source with you..... impressive...)


                      So for something of tiebreaker, I'll give a little extra credit for showing something of action of "chore".....

                      ROger Burque pic is one I keep coming back to. Is a scene that I am not at all familiar with, but interesting, something there keeps my interest, can think of someone building that, and after a while of looking at the pic I am imagining cattle(?) Horses(?) going up (down?) that ramp from (to?) the corral.
                      ANd I wonder why it looks like they added a section to the end to make it at an angle. SO truck is in different direction....? So cattle (horses?) have to negotiate a turn..?
                      Anyway, something about it well posed, and keeps my interest. A Vote for Roger Burque

                      >>later comment:
                      The more I think of it, I think it is that the view is straight down the chute has a lot to do with how I react to the image.

                        "Farmed out" photos should be disqualified... We want orig. only

                            Voting for Mr Redman. Farm machines are so big these days. Sometimes I'll catch up to something that only a bike can squeeze past.

                                Voting for Roger's "Chute Shot". My stepson used to haul cattle, I know serious farm work happens at those loading/unloading chutes.
                                sigpic2002 KLR650 Ugly but fun!
                                2001 KLR650 too pretty to get dirty

                                Life is a balancing act, enjoy every day, "later" will come sooner than you think. Denying yourself joy now betting you will have health and money to enjoy life later is a bad bet.
