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

  14. 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).
