Rapeseed Fields outside Derby

On the train from Derby to Birmingham. Beautiful yellow rapeseed fields flying by us. Rapeseed is used to make Canola oil.

You're right, Alan. Those are Van Gogh cornfields! :-)

I can't believe that I've been driving all over creation looking for farm animals to photograph, and then suddenly find a little barnyard within walking distance of home, with quite a variety of animals -- cow, sheep, goats, chickens, and this very fine turkey! 

Farm. I spent the day in and around Holmes County, Ohio, a large Amish settlement.

Sad face. Went out to the apple orchard today and came across a farm raising Highland Cattle. It was a very gloomy day, at least in the morning, and none of my shots turned out well. Rock had mentioned a trick for catching color on grey days -- something to do with highlights. Can anyone explain in more detail. We have more than our share of grey days here in NE Ohio. :-(
