A field #10MinsFromHome
A colour photograph of a field of grass under a sunny sky. On the left is a managed hedge of thorns and next to that, ruts made by the tractor back in the summer months, now damp with some standing water reflecting the sky. On the right a lone mature oak tree still hanging on to its leaves.
