So I was looking around the farm looking for a subject for a Challenge. The first thing I noticed was the brown landscape. So I was thinking that everyone has something brown inside or outside their home that could make for a unique photo op.
So lets try things that are brown.

One I posted before in Photo Gallery and Digital Artistry, the other two were the other frames from a 3 shot series. Main difference is head position changes a little bit and I processed them in a similar way but not exactly the same.
7DII, 100-400 mkII + 1.4 mkIII @560 mm, 1/250 @ f/8.0, ISO 400 with flash at about 15 feet so heavy cropping on a smallish finch - hand held taken less than an hour before sundown with the yard in heavy shade from trees and fence to the west.

Thanks for hosting, Lorima. I am so hungry those nuts look mighty good.
Brown is about my most un-favorite color but here is one on my way home that has a lot of brown. This was October 16 maybe the 15th 2015 after the rain was so bad that it nearly ended my time here on this planet. I was on my way home and got stuck on the road I normally take home which was flooded to the point it scared the living S..t out of me! Later that night it closed the freeway Hwy 58, for nearly a week and it trapped over 100 cars in a flash flood. But anyway once I got out of that situation thank god and this is just 10 more miles closer to my place and I saw this scene and had to stop for a photo opp. What a diverse landscape I live in because the clouds that caused all the havoc were black as night but this was quite the beautiful sight I think.

Love all three!
It seems everything turns brown in the late fall of Colorado, so lots to choose from. Here are some favorites.

What a photo-op is right! So many things going for it - the colors, textures, lighting, sunburst, lines. Well done - and glad you're still on the planet.

Never knew brown could be beautiful!
As a nurse I've seen more brown than I care to think - and all shades between. Never was fond of brown. But guessing that doesn't have to stay the case.
Golden Brown
Brown dancing in the wind
Spotted Brown
Well done and crispy brown
