It was a lovely day. The weather was glorious; warm, but the wind
was chill. The green fields were just gorgeous, and seemed to
stretch all the way to the mountains. The haystacks piled up in the meadows looked beautiful.
Definitely an idyllic landscape!
Oh, how I love this misty picture! (Photo above.)
It was a wonderful trip through a beautiful scenery and countryside
roads. I've always enjoyed bus rides on educational trips.
(Photos of Evros area, Thrace, North Greece.)
Suddenly...
Hey... look! It's a cow! We saw this beautiful red-brown cow walking along the road. What a great find!
They were watching us at first, but soon they lost their interest!
Cattle are not very talkative...at least they say a big "Moo!" :)
Hope you have a wonderful weekend, everyone! xx

Have a great one!
Tip: Shooting from a bus or any moving vehicle can present
some difficult challenges like distracting reflections and dirty
windows; yet it's really hard because you have a little control
since it is usually moving and carrying you along with it, but
it was worth it. I think the lush landscape and these pretty cows
really afforded a great subject matter.

Καλό Σαββατοκύριακο

ReplyDeleteWhat a fun surprise to discover along the way. They're not usually in any hurry to move either, are they? ;)
ReplyDeletehave not ridden on a bus except the big yellow ones that took me to school. would love to see all those cows. a fun trip and great shots from inside the bus
ReplyDeleteWonderful! I agree, cows are the best thing to watch. Lovely countryside and moo cows. :)
ReplyDeleteI love their velvet noses. Where were the great landscapes taken?
ReplyDeletebeautiful scenery and lovely herd of cattle just lounging along the road!
ReplyDeleteSuch great shots! Especially the Moo-Cows! Enjoy the rest of the trip!
ReplyDeleteHaven't find a cow yet here...
ReplyDeleteLovely images taken by a sensible
hand...
Have a great trip and therefore a
nice weekend...
Hugs
Atishooo - All this greenery is setting my hayfever off. Many thanks for yet more great photos, best wishes for a wonderful week-end. x
ReplyDeleteGracias ha estas fotos es como si hubiéramos hecho el viaje en el mismo autobús.
ReplyDeleteSaludos.
Interesting how cows intrigue us in a lush pastoral setting. Maybe it is greener on the other side of the fence. Oh yea, no fence here. Well share the road.
ReplyDeleteLooks like a beautiful trip! Uh-oh, cows in the road! How fun is that?!
ReplyDeleteYou have great imagination!I see that there are still some places in our country that have not been polluted yet!
ReplyDeleteThe scenery is beautiful.It looks like it might have been a relaxing ride.
ReplyDeleteAs always, great pictures!
ReplyDeleteLove the landscape!
Love that first shot. Is it from out west somewhere? Cows are always cute! thanks for stopping by my blog!
ReplyDeleteMoo! cute cows!:D
ReplyDeleteLooks like a peaceful trip! Gotta love those cows!
ReplyDeleteThese photos are beautiful! They could be framed! The rolling green pastures and adorable cows make for the perfect backdrop. :)
ReplyDeleteThis is fun! They might just say moo, but our cows have different ways of saying it. Sometimes when we're sitting in the middle of our pond fishing we'll hear one and my husband can tell me which one it is, LOL!
ReplyDeleteHope you have a good weekend, Betty!
I know it is not a sky, but I love your cow photos.
ReplyDeleteWho doesn't love cows? :) I hope the rancher got them back in their fence. Great shots -- memories of field trips.
ReplyDeleteBreathtaking scenery. I like the light and tones, soft and very beautiful. A delightful sky. Greetings
ReplyDeleteLovely regists. Really :)
ReplyDeleteThose are great colorful shots, especially considering you snapped them through a window. Nice. Cows are fun to watch.
ReplyDeleteBe well, Betty.

...our driver drove us carefully around the cows who were hanging around on the road! :)
ReplyDeleteIts difficult capturing pc while on the move..... Must say you have done a fabulous job with your shots. Lovely pictures!
ReplyDeleteNice landscapes....
ReplyDeleteGreetings from France,
Pierre
thanks, ever green tree!!
ReplyDeleteyes, it was quite difficult, but those pretty cows afforded a great opportunity to try this.:)
I love it when other people drive, as long as they are doing it safely, so that I can look at the countryside. These are very nice peaceful, interesting pics. I love cows also, you got some great pics of them.
ReplyDeleteYou got some wonderful pictures through the bus window. I really like the scenery. I'll bet the cows slowed you down though -- they move at their own pace and usually think they have the right-of-way.
ReplyDeleteThanks for visiting and commenting on my Thin & Crispy Oatmeal Cookie post!
ReplyDeleteI am excited to check out the rest of your blog! Count me in as your newest follower :)
Oh, what lovely shots! So green and what cute company you had along the way.
ReplyDeleteCool shots--love the cows.
ReplyDeleteHope you have a great weekend as well,
Kim :)
Beautiful photos and have a great weekend!
ReplyDeleteLooks like a wonderful trip via bus. Your first photo is a great one! Thanks for visitin'~
ReplyDeleteThey seem quite at home and totally unfazed by having company.
ReplyDeleteThose brown cows are awesome!
ReplyDeleteNeed to say more? ;)
What beautiful creatures and enjoying such an idyllic setting. Lovely photos!

That sounds like your trip is a winner, and the cows, far out.
ReplyDeletethaks for stopping by! You have lovely photos here! I love the second one! so beautiful! Nice weekend!
ReplyDeleteFirst of all thanks for stopping by. I love your photos. What a great find indeed. Isn't funny how people from the city thinks "A COW" is such a great thing to see. Why? Because we don't see them every day I guess. LOL Anyway it was really cool & see a whole herd - totally awesome. I'm your latest follower. Nice to meet you.
ReplyDeleteWonderful photos of your trip. It's certainly not often one sees cows on the road. :)
ReplyDeletei love to watch n capture scenery.
ReplyDeletebeautiful images!!
ReplyDeleteloved your concluding thought!
Beautiful photos from the bus, the scenery is lovely. The cows are cute. There are a lot of them.
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing this. I like cows.
ReplyDeletei really love cows.
ReplyDeleteThe cows in the road remind me of the freedom these animals have in India. Not a real common sight here, tho.
ReplyDeleteHi Betty and thanks for visiting my blog. Returning the compliment and enjoyed your lovely landscapes but couldn't help wondering where that place is - looks like Scotland or Wales!
ReplyDeleteSince we live in a cow worshiping country we have lots of obstructions these days to get home from work in our car. We live far from the city and when we are coming home late in the night the village road near or home is the sleeping place for so many cows. My wife has to come out from the car and shuuuu the cows and has to direct me between them with out hitting any of them.
ReplyDeleteYou have some fantastic pictures! Thank you so much for vising our cruise blog.
phil, that place is in Thrace, Northern Greece, its name is the Evros (river) Delta, a protected wetland. :)
ReplyDeleteYour cattle on road pictures are very much like what it is in my neighbourhood in Chennai. Cows on the street don't realize they could get hurt. http://omrresident.blogspot.com/2011/05/hit-n-run-on-omr.html
ReplyDeleteThat looks really like country side, lol ! so many cows. Where was it ?
ReplyDeleteI was interested to read your comment above about the location of the wandering cows; the cows weren't a "familiar" kind as I'm accustomed to seeing here in the Pacific Northwest of the USA. Great experience!
ReplyDeleteWow these are great shots. I do love watching cattle myself. Thank you for sharing with us. B
ReplyDeleteHa! I've driven by a lot of cows before — I don't think I've ever seen one in the road!
ReplyDeleteI really love that second photo with the water. you're right about the scenery - it's lovely and lush.
ReplyDeleteI too like taking photos from bus windows. yours are delightful. happy SSS, and I hope you have wonderful week.
I like cowes they are so friendly.
ReplyDeletesorry, I followed you over from another blog, and mistakenly thought you'd joined in Shadow Shot Sunday! but my mistake doesn't change my thoughts about your lovely photos!
ReplyDeleteOh yes I just noticed...You are my 100th follower :) Thank you!
ReplyDeleteThat is what I like road trips. Beautiful sceneries are plenty and just watch the road animals has the right of way too hehehe. Thanks for sharing the photos and the visit too. Happy Sunday!

The bus trip sounds like a great way to relax and concentrate on photographing the scenery! Lovely scenic shots in your post and I live the unruly cows!
ReplyDeletehamburgers on the hoof! =)
ReplyDeleteOr my next motorcycle jacket, still walking around.
this is a great set of shots. Love it:)
ReplyDeleteBeautiful scenic shots Betty - must have been a great trip - especially with those cows ;-) Love that 2nd shot - so peaceful - looks like just the place to kick off one's shoes and lie back in the grass !
ReplyDeleteHave a great week !
Cool find. It made for some great photos!
ReplyDeleteGran reportaje, unas fotografías de una naturalidad excelente. Bellas.
ReplyDeleteUn abrazo

When we are away from home, my wife almost always drives. After all, I can't steer and snap photos at the same time, can I? It's not safe....dirty windows and window glare are the ememy!
ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful countryside. Your moving photos are great Betty.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful set of photos! shooting in a moving vehicle can be very challenging yet I find it relaxing :) Drive-by shots are cool!
ReplyDeleteThanks for "taking us" with your wonderful photographic adventure.
