Welcome to Week 42 of the Tuesday Photo Challenge. Your response was overwhelimng and filled with creativity.  Thank you for all those wonderful entries.

The theme this week provides you with several avenues to take…  Whether you want to use Land as a noun or a verb, it’s entirely your choice.  Whichever choice you make, you have plenty of options; as a verb, is it a duck landing or landing a fish?  As a noun, is it my land, or the land I work.  I’m looking forward to find out what your interpretation will be.

As usual feel free to stretch this week’s theme in any direction that you might want, as there are no boundaries and no goals other than to have fun!

Here’s a bit of land that has been worked across the centuries…

Farm View

On a chilly Winter day, a couple of years ago, I sauntered onto this lovely farm; in the field there were a number of straw bales, so I decided to use one of them for framing this shot.  Looking over the land of the farm toward the comfort of the residence and barn.

The full rules of this challenge are in TPC Guidelines, but here’s the tl;dr:

  • Write a post with an image for this week’s topic
  • Please tag your post with fpj-photo-challenge (if you’re not sure about how tags work, please check out this WordPress article about tagging posts)
  • Create a pingback link to this post, so that I can create a post showing all of the submissions over the week (note: pingbacks may not appear immediately, as my site is set up to require approval for linking to it; helps against previous bad experiences with spamming)
  • Have fun creating something new (or sharing something old)!!

Looking forward to seeing you capture the lay of the land in new and exciting ways.  I know that you won’t land in trouble!

  1. Hmm …. I live near a small airport for two-to-four person propeller planes. I wonder if they would mind me doing some photograpy.

    1. Sounds like an opportunity!

    1. Definitely not cheating! Lovely post!

      1. Thanks Frank. We loved our walks in the woods, spending any time from 30 minutes to 2 hours walking different pathways to explore and enjoy different aspects. Then TPTB gutted it.

  8. I love this farm house. The lighter color of the bundled haystack makes a great contrast of the distant trees and the farm house. It’s a very good shot, Frank!

    1. Thank you very kindly, Miriam. The warm tones of the morning light really helped with this shot, as good lighting makes photography much easier.

      1. That’s very true. With the lighting, we could go to different angles to find the shadow what want!

      2. One of the things that I love to do in photography is using light in unusual ways.

      3. I could see that in your photos. Thank you for giving us the delighted views.
