Been grey and cloudy all day today.. And hot... and humid, big line of storms coming this way but before dark I got the new camera out to play..



Just pulled into the field with a bunch of weeds and a failed haybarley crop...



Some lambs who are part of the weed clean up team.. Just about anything and they will eat but I need more for these biggerfields.



Messing with one of the functions on the camera...



What is that calf standing in?



Is that what you think it is?


Yep.. Now I'm afeeered that Judith will visit Shocked Laughing Laughing Old Industrial hemp planted circa WWII and gone wild..

Nice pictures. I especially like the one with the colored cattle in the field of black and white. It really catches your eye.

IL, Do cattle eat the hemp or do they just jump around in it? It looks rather untouched???? Deer in this neck of the woods eat all the pot they can get ahold of!

They will eat some of it.. Sheep will eat a bit more and goats eat it like candy.. The best is to leave it alone, let it go to seed and than youhave Quail, and to a greater extent doves all voer it.. Too bad they fly al over the place crapping it out and spreading it, lol.. When teh cows leave we will take the batwing in there and shread those stalks..

Oh, last but not least.. It is midley poisonous and does give the cattle.. Uhm.. A buzz...

Shoot, it is either color accent or... Shoot can't remember.. I know it also does color swap in which youcan make everything blue red or something like that it if you want..There is a way to do sepia too with it, still learning.. Great.. Great camera but not exactly compact.

Canon PowerShot S5 1S 8.0 MegaPixel.. Nicer than I need but I like photography too much and most of the basic point and shoots were lacking IMO.. If I had the coin I would have gotten one of the SLR's but I don't so I didn't.
