Demanstrators, rioters, strikers and ... a blackleg?
Or a congreagation of the faithful and an infidel?
I think it's just a big family meeting to discuss what to do with this black SHEEP of the family:)
Love the luscious colours of the grass and sky and the wide-stretching branches of the tree against a white patch of the cloud. Rgds, Viola
beautiful bright colours - love the group and the extra one (the individualist as Jacky sais) makes the picture a harmonic ensemble .. (as for Ircas comment .. in Switzerland the trees would have been cut) ;o) Rebekka
: ))))) are you sure this is africa?? we don't get to see many cows up here in urban northern germany ; )), but when we do, they look exactly like yours here: "black pied cattle" rather than black, brown, or brown-and-white! and the grass looks so lush and green, too – everything seems very much alive and thriving, well, everything except for the imposing dead (?) tree ; )) – a great shot! love the blue sky peeking through the clouds! greetings, sabine.
Great title .... the tree with its arms stretching high into the Heavens, the group of bovines like a congregations - except for the stray one. A lovely shot with fine light and sunny colours and feeling.
greetings, Adele
