in fields of clover

i am a sucker for a beautiful landscape. and fortunately where i live, i'm surrounded by them. just a few miles from my house is a field full of this.....



for those of you who failed ag101, it's red clover, often planted by local farmers to replenish the soil. they usually just let it bloom and then plow it under.

fortunately for unusual photographers like me, when it blooms it is a fabulous, deep magenta. all i needed was a few willing subjects. no such luck, i just found these three......



after being promised popsicles and told yes, they could race each other in the clover, we got down to business. here are a few of my favorites.








and finally





now if i can only get a different red head to come south so i can put her and her beautiful babies in that field....... :)

It seems as if Cowboy Bob should be riding through the field on a cow or horse in those pictures. He's a hottie!!!! How can I book him for a fashion shoot???

Cowboy Bob is available... his rates are just very outrageous and rumor has it ( though I'm not one to gossip) he can be a bit of a "diva" to work with - a tad difficult. ;)
