Quiet Observer

This is a photograph that didn't make the cut for the Gryffon's Aerie farm story recently published in the paper. I was photographing the removal of a large bull when I turned around and saw the dog quietly observing the action. It made a wonderful farm portrait.

Open space

I can only imagine how amazing it would be as a child to live a farm and have the vast open space to play and explore.

Hindsight

After a series of complications on my part, my Sunday Lifestyles piece "A way of life" had to be thrown together rather quickly. By quickly I mean 3 days which seems like a long time but its really not when you have so many things to do: photography, write the story, cutlines and online slideshows. I overlooked a few important images to the story which was written after the layout was completed and in place. Overall the images are weak but help the reader better visualize the story.

This is the calf talked about in the story that's been hand raised by the Ramona and Catherine.
