The photo that chose itself

When I pulled my camera out of my anorak pocket after my walk yesterday, this feather fell out as well. I don't remember picking it up so I like to think it chose me, as image sources can do if you are open to them. One of my favourite quotes is from the 'peasant poet' John Clare: "I found the poems in the fields and only wrote them down". So here's my photo of a lovely pheasant's feather that wanted to be noticed.
