Scotland(1): Stolen memories

September 13, 2014

Ballen4Back from a few days in Scotland at the annual Congress of the International agricultural journalists (IFAJ) in Aberdeen.

It was a very interesting trip. Imagewise I was most impressed by the landscape, not really surprisingly. More surprising maybe: Best elements were the round straw- and haybails. They look really great, even the black wrapped ones on a bright green of a post-rainfall-sun reflecting. Great.

Unfortunately, the bus went too fast for a Bernese to get out his cam at the right time. Plus we stopped rarely when there were bails around. Anyway, I had to steal from some AgJournalist pals. Thanks a lot Debra Murphy from Saskatchewan (top picture) and Peter Lewis from down under!
