I am thrilled that my entry was received so well. I love driving in the Maryland countryside. There are beautiful farms galore. I was coming home from playing golf and decided to drive through one of my favorite areas called Worthington Valley. I have driven it a thousand times and see something new each time. On one of the pastures I saw a man riding a horse and decided to drive out past him, stop the car, and try to get a picture. I took a right turn onto the street that passes along Sagamore Farms. It is the racing stables for great Maryland racehorses like Native Dancer, Bed O'Roses and Discovery. The rider passed by and I was not able to get the shot I was imagining. I drove a short distance further on this road to look at the horses in the luxurious fenced pastures. There was a gated driveway to the right. I looked up the driveway and saw the red Antique Ford pick up truck parked on the side. Excitedly I pulled over to the side got out of the car and shot a few pictures. At first, I wasn't sure if I would use the picture in the challenge because I was imagining a picture of a barn as satisfying the challenge. Changed my mind and decided to take my chances because I really like the image. Glad I did!

Well It didn't win but it was very well received, and bagged you the red...look at the comments very very similar in regards to this being very perfect for the challenge, congratulations!
Sigh, I LOVE THIS, as soon as I saw it! This is so cookie cut PERFECT for the challenge. A real delight to look at, almost too good to be true! I adore the classic white fence, the rolling hills, the trees, the lawn mowed in straight lines, and who can not mention the classic red vintage car, which pops and gives contrast...where did that come from, would love to know, is it yours??
