Farm Show!

For the first time I went to the PA Farm Show all by myself. It's the largest show of it's kind under one roof in the US. I've always wanted to go and really study the animals but it's so crowded I became frustrated and only stayed a few hours. I did manage to get some nice shots. 

You can see all my favorite shots on Flickr.

Fancy chickens drink Coca Cola. 

Today was carriage racing. I saw many of these teams compete at Devon last year. 

It's such an exciting event.

Boy do those horses and ponies fly!

Farms from the Car

It's such a beautiful time of year! 

I talked my family into a drive to nowhere on Sunday. 

Mainly so I could shoot some fall farmland during the magic hour before sunset. 

Someone from out of town said to me the other day

 that they bet I take this beautiful landscape for granted.

Never, ever. Not for one moment. I love Lancaster County.

I managed to get a few good shots, even from the car...

We stopped briefly at Lititz Springs Park to see the ducks. 

Zoe had a near duck experience.
