Description


---
Continuing my "Spring Dance" series, this photo harkens back to the Bucks County Barn tour of July 2009. A bit off the beaten track, this scene was taking place behind the farm house.
---
For this entry, I made some changes in saturation and vibrancy and gave the chicken a little more prominence. She could take on a FOX now and win!

This reminds me of that Sarah Evens song about the clothes on the line, suds in the bucket. Don't see to many people dong this anymore and for what ever reason it always makes for a beautiful picture. The colors, the different cloths, and this one is exceptional as we also get to see the rooster. Beautiful look my friend. #10981790

I love this, Michelle! A beautiful capture!
I have me a small clothes line in the back of our house on our farm and oh, how I love to hang my jeans out to dry in the wind. I wish it was large enough to hang my sheets. I have some red jeans hanging now.

LOL! Don't ever underestimate the power of a chicken (says one whose mother used to raise them). Cool capture! #10982000
