The nearby pond has been frozen over for more than a month. In that time it has partially thawed and refrozen, been snowed on several times, and been rained upon. Each event has left its mark as textures and patterns that change daily and offer an endless variety of subjects for a photographer.

Seat of power

The “seat of power” probably meant something different when this piece of farm equipment was last used. My guess is that the person who sat here had more common sense than many of those sittting in powerful positions do today. They worked harder and complained less, too. Enough said.
