Picture this. You are driving along a country road. It’s early in the morning and the sun is low in the sky filtering beautifully through the trees as you move along. You’re not in a hurry. You glance to the side and something catches your eye. Something hanging low on a tree almost glowing in the warm morning light. At first you’re not sure what you see but then you say quietly, “It’s a chicken”. And it is a chicken. It’s hanging by its feet from a low branch and it’s almost naked. Like the tree. There is a figure bending towards it removing the last few feathers. The light is perfect. So perfect it seems only natural that this is unfolding before you. And you realize that if you had your camera with you, you might have stopped and interrupted this scene, but you didn’t and now you have only words.
draw and shoot 
What an amazing scene it must have been. Thanks for painting it for us!
One of the scenes you must not “lose”, beautiful.
Wonderful post!! So good I, too, can see what you seen!!
i feel your pain, i’ve been there. your description of the event, the words, did paint a lovely scene. thanks for that.
With or without camera, while driving, good scenes often pop into sight, but hardly ever can I get myself to stop (in time) for such a photo opportunity. It`s a shame but I find the car a bad hindrance to photography, even more so than lack of camera because there never is a lack of camera even if it is as humble a one as the one on my phone. By the way I`ve enjoyed very much reading your (non)photograph.
A car could be good for photography if a) someone else driving and b) you want to make impressionistic images, I guess?
Thanks for your comment.
