Hugh’s Weekly Photo Challenge: Week 26 – Distance is all about choosing a photo that shows an object that is in the distance. Maybe it’s a building or a wonderful view that contains an interesting object or scene that, although it is in the distance, shows up really well in the photo? Maybe you can spot where you are headed to from a plane or train and you’ve managed to capture it?
Want to join the fun? Here’s what you need to do.
1. Take or choose a photo that you’ve taken which defines Distance.
2. Create a new post on your blog entitled “Hugh’s Weekly Photo Challenge: Week 26 – ‘Distance’
3. Add the photo(s) you have taken to the post and tell us a little about what you are showing.
4. Create a pingback to this post or leave a link to your post in the comments section so other participants can view the post.

This is a photo of Pike’s Peak which is visible a couple streets over from our house here in Colorado. I took this photo in the dead of winter and as you can see, our housing area is new and still under development.
This is a photo I took in 1996 of a cattle branding at the Dearborn Ranch where I worked in Montana. It was a hot dusty job and made me happy that I worked most of my days in the office in Great Falls taking care of the administrative side of things.
Thanks for popping in to see my take on “distance!”
That sounds like an interesting job indeed, Colleen

It was! I was the bookkeeper and admin assistant for the ranch and farm. The owner had an oil company and I did the books for that company too. Best jobs I had ever had! 😊

A lovely view indeed, Colleen. Snow-capped mountains are one of my favourite views.
Glad you worked in the office. I can’t imagine what working in that heat must have been like.

It was the best experience Hugh. I was a city girl and knew nothing of farming and ranching. It was the job of a lifetime! 😊💖

I can only image. With all those Cowboys about, I’d probably not have been in the office much 😃

I really should do some blog posts about my experiences. It was pretty amazing. I never thought I would learn so much about bull semen, cattle breeding, and cowboys! LOL! Hugh, that is so funny. ❤

Not especially but I did try them. I couldn’t participate because I was not covered under workers compensation. I was admin not a ranch hand. Sad but true! LOL! 🐂🐎🐄

I would hate to brand or do the other job.
