With the long summer dryness upon us after an extended rainy season, the bare hills are more colorful than their usual ruddy brown. The muted, earthy colors in this scene are pretty typical of what I’m seeing on all the local hillsides right now. The cows, as usual, seem content.

Lens: Canon EF-S 15-85mm at 85mm. 1/160 second at f/16, ISO 200.

Canon T2i vamping on the pastoral.
