Gary R.

Santa Margarita California

Out visiting the wildflowers near the Carrizo Plain, this guy got out of his car,
played two numbers on his bagpipes, got back in the car, and went on his way.
Not something that happens every day, but we certainly appreciated it.

Pipes in the heathers... love the shot and the story.

The Monet-like fields are delicious ... and bagpipes are definitely an open-air sort of instrument.

Tell me he didn't play "Amazing Grace".

I agree with Mike, the field looks painterly and very nice.
Guess his wife said he had to get out of the house!

The appearance of the field most likely inspired him to pay tribute to the moment. Which you then did by paying tribute to both.

What an interesting incident - and a very nice picture!

Interesting photo. The field beyond the musician has a painting like appearance to it, as if you can see the brush strokes.
