6/19-Elements of Design
DRU Virtual World Tour
This is pretty much what you see in my town.
CORN, CORN, and more CORN!
Aside from cropping and some basic edits, this is just how it looked when shot...no transforming was done to make the curves.

Thanks so much, Usman. They really caught MY eye while driving by them...I didn't want to regret not capturing them right then and there, knowing that in a few days, they just wouldn't look the same. Hubby was patient enough to pull over and let me "create".A P July 21, 2009

WOW! Thank you all SO much. I've been so busy building my website and getting the business going that I hadn't even paid attention to what day it was getting close to and was gone most of the day and all evening. What a pleasant surprise to close my eyes to for the night! Best of luck to all of YOU who received finalists, too!Susan M. Hembree July 22, 2009

Thanks so much, Carlton. I knew I didn't stand a chance for a win when I saw the other images I was up against. I appreciate the encouragement, however. #7771869David Pratt July 25, 2009

Seriously, this is a really neat image. I love the dark rich soil and the beautiful life giving green! It goes without saying how cool the lines are!!!

Great job Vicki! I love the lines! ~Pat #7782293Vicki L. Filippin July 26, 2009
Thanks a heap Laura & Pat. It's funny how we can take our "normal" surroundings for granted, but if you make the time to look at them with a different perspective, it can be ART! You don't get a whole lotta time to get a capture like this...they all grow up SO fast, those little ones, huh? #7782577

Thanks, Sherran. No need to be jealous...the grass (or corn) always seems greener on the other side of the fence. I think we all get that way when we see what kewl shots other people get of places or thing we would not normally be able to see otherwise. #7782911
