Following on from my last posting, I’m sure you’ll be pleased to know that I didn’t have to play hunt the spider the next day… she was gone, packed her web and moved on no doubt to some part of the garden where grass hoppers abound.
Since then the mornings have been getting mistier, the shadows longer and carts with pumpkins have sprung up like mushrooms throughout the region. During this mornings jaunt with the dog I came across these boxes waiting to be filled with potatoes….. and whilst tending the barbecue this evening a noticed a tractor trundle past pulling a couple of trailers laden with boxes full of freshly lifted potatoes. If I remember rightly potatoes are not dug up, they are lifted…… a surprising light and airy term when I consider the aftermath of our gardens potato harvest resembles an open cast mine.
The following images were B&W straight out of the camera, and I used ISO 400 to achieve a more grainy look, I then tampered with the contrast a little using The Gimp.
