Not my best technical quality photography ever (cropped and high ISO means a lot of grain... and if I'm honest, the focus is a bit out too... and it was taken through the office window, which may have some Saharan sand on it outside from the recent wind and rain too... enough excuses...) but I… Continue reading no mow
