photos forgotten.....

when we were in seattle
back in august
we saw our first elk
and
since around here i think deer are amazing
you can only imagine what i felt seeing a field full of elk at dusk
this tractor was in the same field as the elk
and
i didn't want it to feel left out with all my picture taking
and
honestly, as far as tractors go, it's quite fabulous
and
at the wedding rehearsal
when i asked the groom and all "his guys" to jump
well, all i can say is WOW
~
i feel terrible that they were all blinded by the late afternoon sun
but
i had to get that mountain in the background

Uh love the deer, and the tractor.
What about the guys did they drink redbull before you made them jump...gosh they are skyhigh.

Meri said...

Looks like Mt. Si to me. . . and the tractor shot is wonderful (I guess I don't get as excited as you about elk. . . after all, I live in the Pacific NW).
