How very interesting! Love the patterns and the undulating fields. Amazing that they can travel in straight rows. Great shot, Tara.

"...for amber waves of grain..." God's abundance to man. Amazing. Yet, as you say, it looks like a plaid cloth. I assume you were in a plane/helecopter when you took this photo. Keep up the good work! :-)

Astonishing! What sheer delight!

I know where you were when you took this but I'll let that be our little secret. Fantastic image you captured here. I guess I'll have to go back during the winter to complete the year.

This looks like a nice, soft blanket you could just jump on! What a wonderful shot, Tara! Wow!
Not sure how you got this unless you and Bill got yourselves a Phantom or something... LOL

It really looks like it could be the plaid of a brand new Scottish clan! Most impressive Tara!

real visual acuity on your part to capture this phenomenon. From your distance, and with your light and gentle patina, you captured the plaid perfectly. "Plaid" originally just meant "blanket"---it wasn't originally associated with the patterns we now associate it with. (That criss-cross probably grew with the use of clan patterns in Scotland.) And this picture captures both meanings of the word. It's a blanket, beautifully rolling; and it's a plaid, as in a patterned plaid, as in our 'usual' sense of plaid. And that's captured strongly but softly here. It really does look like fabric in your hands, like a big scarf or throw. And you included a patch of dark brown on the right and a patch of non plaided land on the top---with that green river of vegetation on top---which is all we need to remind us of the scale (large). Simple and beautiful, and the land looks so soft in your hands. Like it's made of a very fine fabric...
(you know Harris Tweed? Ie, from the Harris Islands, off Scotland? They put their logo over everything. Their linings, their tags, sometimes in the wool itself. ((It's registered in Scotland, and you can't call something "Harris Tweed" without getting the government approval.)) Well, it would be great if, in a landscape like this, you had a big national logo on it. Like Harris Tweed. Or Donegal tweed, or Magee Tweed, whatever. ((No, Magee Tweed was not an old girlfriend.)) That isn't that entertaining, but it crossed my mind so I shared it. At least a little 'tag' on the field. Like "dry clean only". So we know it's really fabric. Or "42L". Just a suggestion...)

It looks like this is taken out of a plane, dear Tara. It really results in an amazing pattern, with wonderful winding heights and depths, as colour shades.
