Thanks to all who tried to guess yesterday's object. It is obviously a gas burner, but it is used
by my brother-in-law to keep warm the chicks he raises from one day old to 'point of lay' when
he sells them to Free Range egg producers. Must try and get some 'chick' pictures later
in the week.

I'm trying to develop a technique to give my tree pictures more impact. I'm starting
to see trees not as soft, dreamy subjects but as quite funky objects with attitude.
Ooops - that does sound arty-farty doesn't it! But I'm playing with curves and higher saturation.

The jumbo-sized puddle was irresistable here!
