Description
To me it was only $400, but to the rich farmers it was a $1,000,000 rain! Add mineral rights and oil below and you have a pretty sweet deal considering these farm were homesteaded for free after they removed the Native Americans from them. Now the Tribes have casinos and some rich farmers loose their fortunes back to the Native Americans. Kind of ironic isn't it?

The detail in the sky and flowers is great. Well done. My only nit is that the camera wasn't level, giving an uneven horizon which is so noticeable on a shot like this. Still, it's a terrific shot. Andrew

You're right it was slightly higher on the left side. With the wide angle lens I have noticed that happening more often. On this shot I didn't notice it because the horizon on the right is farther away than the left. I straightened it anyway and it looks fine to me. Glad someone is more awake than me this time of the morning lol!

what goes around, comes around indeed!! :-D 'usually' I'm on the side of the Indians... the nerve some people have and how they learned from history... NOT!? get confronted with these issues even when posting here. like 'this is my hometown Vlissingen... Flushing, NY was named after that, guess why? in the province of Zeeland, after which New Zealand was named, we FOUND it. and hey, see how Middelburg once flourished? had it's mom of fame & fortune in the past, since slavery was very lucrative business... ' etceteraaaaa like 'a little' embarrassing? :-((( so, YAY for 'progress' LOVE this pic!!! awesome capture!!
