A rare moment.

I really like pigs. And ducks.

I could never be a farmer as i would never have the heart to sell them off for food.

Eat them form a shop, sure

Bookman !!!! did you just mention the 'D' word?....you know what happens when I see that don't you biggrin.png

Luckily I have the capability to ' switch off ' when it comes to slaughtering and butchering the animals.

When I was younger I worked in a slaughterhouse and at a butchery and I think that helped make things easier.

But I will add that I can not stand to see an animal suffer and so if and when it's time has come then it MUST be done quick and clean.

The ' hit and stick ' Thai method does actually go against the grain for me but I can and have done this.

My main concern is/was the animals well being whilst it is alive.

Ironic really as that was one off the things that made me lose the farm in the end !!!

Off to look for some ' D ' word photos thumbsup.gif

Today i was searching for something on my external hard drive and I came across some old photos.I realized that I still had many of the old farm and thought it was a shame to have them hidden away ...

Iv'e always gone under the theory that I work on, Is that most of man or women eat meat and if you need to grow livestock to support yourself or the community is that you give those animals the best life you can before that time comes and make the end as swift and pain free as possible, For me I feel Kharma will give me understanding :)

I remember some time ago being tapped on the shoulder about some Sunset photos.

Happy to say that while I was working through the photos for the Prawn Thread,

I came across these.

Life on the Farm at Sunset, feeding the fish in the Lake.

The camera doesn’t have that much to do with it in my case (Canon S90). I even have a couple dead pixels on the sensor which need to be repaired in most images.

Just need to be lucky enough to be in the right place, at the right time, with good light. I have played around with Aperture for a while and seem to have developed a style of presentation though trial and error.

Some people like my pictures and some don’t. Thanks for being one of those who seem to like them.wai.gif

Romance

Romance DAL?

Must admit, that one also went through to the keeper for me.

.

I meant romantic there, sorry. Because of the combination of the more or less dirty yard and those flowers in the middle.

Here some ducks for you Shaggy, these are Samuiean Ducks. I get the feeling they want to tell something.

I think that the one in the middle is shouting "stop taking photo's and call my lawyer....I'm innocent I tell ya "
