A very nice take, Mike! Like this one a lot! 🙏

Thanks, I was attracted to the scarecrow himself but putting him in the background gave the image a good but weird flavor.

Going on the detail in the seedpod, you made a good choice, Mike. Splendid frame!

Thanks again. Unlike you I had a tremendous amount of iced coffee so the shutter speed was 1/500 sec.

Doesn’t iced-coffee cool the nerves somewhat? Cancelling out the effects? 😉 Have a great New Year, Mike. 🙏

If it did I wouldn’t drink it, just like I didn’t used to drink Vodka for the taste. I have a tripod in my car but rarely use it during the day. Happy new year to you too and thanks for visiting.

Yeah, I keep a pointless tripod in my boot too! Comes everywhere with me. Never used it. Well, maybe once to pull a loose branch from under the car last winter! Anyhow, have a good one Mike. All the best, Rob. 🙏

I don’t feel its pointless at all, it just takes an extra minute or two to set up. I even used to carry it in my motorcycle tailbag. It just feels limiting sometimes depending on what you’re shooting. Take care Rob.

Mine is a Sirui travel tripod so its not such a big deal to use but very sturdy with a ball head.

Scarecrows are fascinating for me. I don’t know why.

They really are, maybe because they remind us of childhood?

In my childhood there was no scarecrows… what a dull childhood I had! 😀
