I think one reason I love photography so much is that I  have always believed that life is a series of landscapes, they change all the time, almost every day. I never took a photograph in my life until I got a camera at the first Bedlam Farm six years ago, now there is hardly a day that goes by that I do not take more than one picture. My life is a landscape, it seems to change all of the time.

This morning, a new landscape emerged here, backlit against the rising sun. I put my camera up to my face and caught this still strange but beautiful scene, Maria greeting her pony and her beloved donkeys Lulu and Fanny and Chloe are a herd now, inseparable. Sometimes, Chloe will find herself off grazing and will notice Lulu and Fanny aren’t nearby, she gives off a beautiful whinny and takes off looking for them.

They are always together now, and she has stopped trying to stomp the sheep. One constant in the landscape at the farm is our love for the animals here. I can’t say I love them all equally, but I love them all. Maria loves her pony and  her donkeys, she is overjoyed to see them every day, and they return the favor.

Chloe fits in. She loves people is a ham for attention, is calm and good to the other animals. She seems to love dogs, a good thing for a Bedlam Farm animal. Today, I am happy to share a new landscape with you, the farm is a Mother in a way, it gives and gives.
