Field of Dreams

There aren't many undisturbed fields near where I live, so when I see one, I photograph it. I grew up in rural southern Michigan where my parents purchased land from a dairy farmer.  They built a home for the eight of us with their own hands, while milk cows grazed. Not until the last of six parcels sold did the fences come down and the cows find new homes.

Still Hanging

The sun dangled over the farm in those final moments before day faded to night. It posed between silo and pine like a bowling ball about to roll between a bedpost split. 

I'm not a bowler, but I do like the picturesque terminology presented above.  The 7-10 split is also called a goalpost split, which may appeal to some more than others.
