Every now and then Nature presents you with ready-made composition complete with symbolism. Here three stages of life overlap in three strands of grass. Make of it what you will.

Backstory

Farm and ranch equipment is vital and necessary for a few days each year. It often spends the rest of its life weathering in a field waiting to be used.

I love the way the grass seeds washed out in the light to contrast with the rust on this old chisel plow. Even the imprecise focus on the grass, which was dancing in a gusty breeze, adds to the ambiance of this shot.
