Home from the Hill

This picture was taken from the farthest corner of the original block of land. It is also the highest point, and am looking down across the fields to the farm yard and its associated buildings and houses. I am probably 750m away from them.

The fields are direct drilled (no-till seeding) these days, with a major emphasis on minimising soil disturbance and resultant soil erosion. The stubble was from before winter. This land was all cleared by my grandfather or his descendants. Virgin bush lies behind and to right of the photographer.
