Farming in all weathers,
John McConnell, Rathfriland, Co. Down
December 2010,
This photograph was taken with a Canon compact camera demonstrating that you don’t always have to have expensive kit - it is about capturing the moment with whatever you have in your hand. It was the winter of the big freeze and I went that morning to help Dad feed the calves before church. I was meant to be keeping the calves away from the trough as he dropped the feed, but as you can see, I wasn’t doing a good job! This photo was entered in the Irish Farmers Journal social media competition and it was published in the paper as the winning entry! A month after this photo was taken, Dad was diagnosed with Non-Hodgkins Lymphoma, a type of blood cancer.
