Farming is hard work.  And, we all depend on the hard work of farmers every day...for our food, our clothes, our shoes, and for many other daily necessities.  We have a small urban garden and it requires much care and cultivation.  I am in awe of the farmers with many different crops and livestock to care for every single day.

Today is a day to give thanks for the farmers in our lives, known or unknown to us.  

Including the human touch in our photos ups the emotional impact of the image.  A farmer on a tractor, or with dirty hands, or milking a cow, or sheering a sheep...that human touch puts a human face on some of the things that we perhaps take for granted.

Give thanks for farmers with today's photo.
