Description
Hello to you all. I have been absent but really have some great excuses! (I don't want to hear anybody say..."huh? - were you gone??") I know a few people missed me because I have sitemails and emails to prove it. *grin* Thank you for those, by the way. Hugs to you for cheering me up.
This upload is the first of a series of photos from my road trip. We made a giant loop in a motor home from Minnesota to Yellowstone and back again. This is really a great way to see the USA in all it's glory. I can say that my family survived many days of togetherness without killing each other! What killed us was the gas prices for a vehicle that averaged 9 miles to the gallon. Ouch!
ANYHOW - This shot was taken in South Dakota somewhere near Chamberlain. I come from farm country and see fields all the time. But, I thought this one was beautiful. And these farms are HUGE. Maybe I got excited about the patterns in these golden fields after viewing miles and miles of nothing but corn fields. Ha. Keep in mind these were taken while moving.
I promise you - they get more exciting after this. lol.
Thanks for viewing.
Blessings to all. And, very special healing wishes sent out to Bill.

I see this every time I leave my city limits. I love it. The openness and the feeling of home. Great shot!

Welcome back, interesting pic for what it does not show. Here in the UK we are so populated in the flat areas that you always seem to find a building or hedge in the pic.(Just watch an East Anglian prove me wrong ! )

Amazing, and a great pic, but quite desolate to an English person used to rural Dorset with hedges and lanes.

Welcome back Jodie! How invigorating for the trained eye used to corn and wheat fields. These patterns are just so exciting and tell their own story. I am glad the family is still intact after the confined space journey, lol.

Stunning, my mom is from South Dakota, and what a beautiful part of the country, and I look forward to all the photos you took on your trip, I love road trips like that, nothing like it. WELCOME BACK

The striated rows in the golden field help create a wonderful perspective in this lovely foto taken in South Dakota, the state I was born in centuries ago! And the grass looks recently mowed. Glad you enjoyed your grand tour of the good old USA, Jodie, and you were missed!

Beautiful. Well seen, and captured.

huh? were you gone?? (ha ha, ok I'll stop) I love the broad areas in this shot, how, with all their detail, they make up great sweeping 'areas'—ie, the golden land all plowed/mowed, the grasses around it, the gentle hills, and the sky. And with all the grasses & the details in the golden area (can I assume it's bare earth being cultivated? did I just show my city-origins, lol?), it falls into basic sweeps of this hue or that, this texture or that—the kind of visual music that the midwest & environs is simply awash in. South Dakota (see? I said "South"! we city folk do read a geography book once in awhile, lol) is filled with vistas like this, and I don't think you could've captured this vista better. And while it seems divided in 'two', you still have 'threes', because the golden area is the '2' to the grass & sky. Simple, pure Midwest, and very restful. I'd love to see this huge. Beautiful work once again, JK! I'm excited to think of what will follow! (Oh, and your signature, as always, is classily done in the hue of the golden part...)

Lots of fields looking like this in the UK as the farmers are harvesting like mad, much smaller fields though and as Andrae said mostly with hedges.
