The long way home

When I take the long way home I pass through what I call the 'high country'. 


Stockyards are built wherever there is a bit of flat land.  Luckily, in this case, that is right beside the road.  The white line is the road marking and the yards are below road level.


Quite often the fences march across the tops of the hills.

 

Of course there are fences on either side of the road.


At one place a fence comes right to the edge of the road, you can see it there in the photo.  No seal or lines on the road up here.  The white marker posts are a warning to drivers approaching the corner.


But I was more interested in the moss hanging from the battens but not the post.


I'll to be linking to Good Fences, here.  This weekend I expect to have time to look in on lots of other contributors, too.

  4. I echo Adrian's sentiments and that last shot is just wonderful. The air must be so clean there for those lichens / mosses to grow so well.
