My sister The Aunt has produced this photographic essay of her week on the Plains for us.
A special exhibition for The Fellowship of the Farm
She called the file: ” Sisters and Clouds.”

Aren’t they beautiful.
Much love Cecilia and her Sister
PS My sister has asked that you respect that these are from her Private Collection and may not be copied, filed to your computer or re-published due to copyright issues. I am sure you understand. She is a startlingly talented professional photographer and her pictures are never on the internet (which is why her name also stays private) so I am grateful that she would create this gallery for us.

I could tell from the first shot I saw that your sister is a professional. She’s incredibly talented. Thank you sister and Cecilia for sharing!
Fabulous! A little bit of heaven.
I never knew cloudy days could be so beautiful! Thanks Sister for sharing your work with us.
Such beauty. Thank you for sharing!
what brilliant photographs – lucky you and please say thank you to your sister for giving us the honour and pleasure to view these. Carina
Those are so beautiful!
Great photos, gentle processing. Love the one of you in the barn door. Thank your sister for sharing.
It is lovely to see through your sister’s eyes. You both share in such different ways. Micro and macro. Between the two of you we get to see an even more complete view of your life. Please thank her for sharing.
I will thank her for you Joan.. thank you! c
Much applause and thanks. These are so beautiful. The newly planted field with the tiny green plants is so striking – nature’s OP art; obviously the source of abstract art and design. The first one is pure art. (And smiled at the barn shot where you are de lighted surrounded by glow/going into the light – not the “final step,” silly, just those of the land and farms see the light of life clearer….sort of a pictorial analogy?)
Gorgeous work. (Do hope there’s a watermark/invisible GPS tag on there – Google images will find them)
THANKS so much for these
Startlingly talented is right. I opened this post blearily at 1.30am as I sipped my ‘getting the Husband off to work’ heart starter, and by the time I’d finished scrolling through the images, the coffee was totally redundant. She has such a talent for scale, proportion, colour and composition. Just….. WOW. Thank you, to both of you, for the beautiful pictures, for the source of inspiration, and for the generosity in sharing them.
Amazingly beautiful. Well done Miss Aunt, and thank you so very much for creating this little gallery for us. I’m also a professional photographer and am in awe of your eye and of these beautiful images you’ve captured. 😀
Such amazing pictures, it’s so kind of her to allow you to share these here.
What lovely photos… the stark beauty of a prairie homestead. Your sister’s perception is unique and stunning. Of course there’s you… woman of the prairie – her presence at one with land and sky. Of all things to spy in a photograph (that stuck with me for some reason) is the indoor barn shot with the well-used broom in the forefront. The barn broom is a tool we rarely think about. Even in her old age, with bristles all askew, battered and filthy, she still sweeps up messes and swats away cob webs, even helping to shuttle a wayward hen or cat to safety, never being thanked once for her life of hard work. 🙂
I use that broom to sweep the milking shed. It has a hard life. c
I’m moved to tears by the title, Sisters and Clouds. And by the images themselves. They are stunning. STUNNING.
Sisters ARE clouds in my family – we move fast through our moods..
She captured it. Very nicely done.
