A fresh coat of bright paint on this old farm machine really made for a nice photo. I have taken several photos in the same spot before, but for whatever reason the owners decided to do some “paint-up-fix-up” just for me and my camera. I wish there was a way us older guys could do the same “fix-up thing” to our faces and bodies, but the last time I tried doing it I made a real mess with splattered paint all over the place, and cleaning up afterwards was not that much fun. At least it was not oil-based paint I was using.

So, with this bit of nonsense, I begin a new year of photo blogging.
