Mow Better Blues (Or Browns)

Yes, I Even See Beauty In A Swirling Dust Cloud

Photographs copyright: DAVID McMAHON

So there I was in the car, with the camera on the seat beside me. I saw this billowing cloud of dust as Pete Miller used his ride-on mower - and I knew the picture had to be taken. But by the time I pulled over and got the camera out, most of the dust had subsided. Pete was just wrapping up, unfortunately, so my picture opportunity was about to disappear down the gurgler. So I told him what I was trying to do and very sportingly, he agreed to reprise the performance.
