Agate - a semi precious stone!!!

After staying in Ballater last night, I drove home.
A pretty horrible day - grey, dark and sleet.
I read somewhere, or somebody told me, that in photographic circles, it is considered to be good practice that if there is a gate in a photo, it should be open so that the viewer can see what is on the other side.
Well, let me inform you, that on the other side of this particular gate are some cows, one of which decided to turn her back on me!!!
Isn't it great being able to choose the thumbnail????
