Plainsong is monophonic, consisting of a single, unaccompanied melodic line. It is in free, rather than measured, rhythm. Similar to chant. / A madrigal is a type of secular vocal music composition, written during the Renaissance music and early Baroque music eras. Especially during the late 16th century, composers were ingenious in their use of so-called “madrigalisms” — passages in which the music assigned to a particular word expresses its meaning, for example, setting riso (smile) to a passage of quick, running notes which imitate laughter, or sospiro (sigh) to a note which falls to the note below. / A ballad is a form of verse, often a narrative story and set to music. It is also used to describe a type of lyric which resembles a madrigal though it is usually sung as a solo piece.

When the owner was giving me permission to take this shot he told me this farm has been in the family since it was homesteaded( over a 100 year ago I assume). He said this old barn set out in the middle of area were lake is now and the Army Corp of Engineers moved it to this location when they build the dam for Fern Ridge Reservoir. / This barn is on recognized by the Oregon Century Farm & Century Ranch Program which is a statewide recognition program honoring farmers and ranchers who have worked the same land for at least 100 years. The program is administered through the Oregon Agricultural Education Foundation and is partially funded through a partnership of the Oregon Farm Bureau, Oregon Department of Agriculture, and the Oregon Historical Society. / Since the start of the program in 1958, more than 1,000 farms and ranches across the state have been registered. Oregon has one of the oldest agricultural heritage programs of this type in the entire nation / Taken near Elmira, Oregon in Lane County on Nov 2,2009 with a Canon SX10 IS PowerShot.

A haunting, very secluded road through the woods of Maine. It reminds me of this beautiful poem by Robert Frost: Stopping by Woods on a Snowy Evening / by: Robert Frost / / Whose woods these are I think I know. / His house is in the village though; / He will not see me stopping here / To watch his woods fill up with snow. My little horse must think it queer / To stop without a farmhouse near / Between the woods and frozen lake / The darkest evening of the year. He gives his harness bells a shake / To ask if there is some mistake. / The only other sound’s the sweep / Of the easy wind and downy flake. The woods are lovely, dark, and deep, / But I have promises to keep, / And miles to go before I sleep, / And miles to go before I sleep. / /
three small wild raspberry leaves. still holding on in the Maine woods, and looking lovely as they are seen backlit by the morning sun.
