Description
This evokes a time when there wasn't any machinery to work the fields. Horses have been used for thousands of years to help with the heavier tasks on a farm.
There are actually 4 draught horses pulling this plough. They were preparing the soil for a planting of garlic at an organic farm in Washington State.

Beautiful, love the way the rider stands out against the dust! v
Peter Mooyman replied:
Thanks James! I'm happy with that effect too - it was the way the wind was blowing the dust away from him and I was in the right spot to catch it.
