Autumn

Every year i used to decide it was Autumn when the Combine Harvesters would be in the field doing their bit. There is loads of fields like this around my parents home that are always cropped for having barley and such. I used to always go to the fields every years when i was younger to watch it, and when the farmer was gone i'd walk right up to the combine harvester which was usually parked in the field overnight. It was fun.

I feel quite tempted to go up to the farmer one day and ask him if i can go into the field while he is harvesting and take some photographs. For some reason, i just can't pluck up the courage. There is another wee local landmark which would be ideal for this weeks assignment which is also in another field and i'd like to go and take photographs of that, but again...i feel i need to ask for permission. I could get away with it when i was younger, but now i'm older it doesn't feel as fun going into these fields as the chances on some randomer in 4x4 coming up asking you to leave is more likely now.

Exactly this time in 1 month i should be sleeping in my Australian bed. Time has certainly flown by.
