more tales of the river bank

although this scene looks tranquil the water is foul; it is full of nitrites, nitrates and slurry and anything else the modern agribusiness can flush down the river. The detergents make the water foam up, and it is full of algae. When you look around the only crop anyone cares about is cash, and soon the world will be covered in cash and everything else will be dead. This isn't husbandry, it's murder.

countryside colours

stitchwort (white) campion (red) dog violet (violet) and celandine (yellow) add some colour to this black and white photo.
