Silos at Sunset/ Sky Watch

Glow in the west

The cattle had headed back to the barn to the left of these silos.. I can't remember,  but I suspect they just missed all this beauty.

  6. The cows don't care like we do -- they see it happen daily. It is so subtle that it is very becoming!

  40. Great Farm sunset photo..but you know..I have never seen a tower on top of a Silo before..well they just didn't have the modern stuff like today when I was a kid on the farm.

  41. I am so late in posting and so behind in my comments....school has been rugged since last week. MANY bad kids in my suspension room draining every bit of strength from me. Your silo shot is wonderful. We have so many of them is this rural county and I am always telling myself I’m going to photograph them...and then I forget. If the cattle missed it, they missed one beautiful day. Your composition and tonal quality is lovely. Love it!
