Harvest Time

The field behind us has been harvested – I love seeing the cycle of the seasons around us, even if it does signal the end of summer (or at least the beginning of the end). I found it quite funny looking down the garden to see Chas, taking washing off of the line, being dwarfed by a massive combine harvester on the other side of the fence.

Unfortunately I wasn’t quick enough with the camera to get Chas and the combine in the same photo. Last night was a harvest moon – the exceptionally bright seasonal full moon. I came home from work at 2.30am and the whole countryside was bathed in bright moonshine. I tried to take a photo of the moon with my compact camera without success. My SLR camera was in the study – fetching it would have disturbed the dogs, which would have disturbed Chas, and there is enough trouble in the world….
