 8314 All I had was my cellphone.

This is my BFF (in her mom's nightgown), her husband, and her chicken... whose name was "Lydia" until the morning he started crowing.

Now his name is "Mr. Lydia".

I like this.

I was your 10. The nerve you had! Congrats for using your friends and their paraphernalia. And your cell

Some how I hear farm music when I see this. Great imagery and balance. I love this and I love the wit in your images, I always have.

fun fact. if you visit the home where this was painted in Iowa, there’s a visitors center that allows you to recreate this shot - and as if a couple years ago, it’s completely free - they give you the pitchfork and outfit as well. great fun shot :) 7
