Scarecrow

November 05, 2021 in photographs

Galicia, October 2021. From the video "A bike and a camera".

I always wondered why scarecrow. Is it only to scare crows? In Spanish, these are called espantapájaros, or scarebird - because it's supposed to scare birds in general.

Anyway. This is an image I knew I had to make when I saw the scarecrow in the middle of a turnip field, on a foggy morning riding my bike. This is one of those images that I know will look terrific in print, and I can't wait to see it myself.
