10.04.09 = Just one last post from Indiana. The sky was just such an amazing blue and I couldn't get enough of it. No big commentary today, I feel like I have been on a soap box lately. Hope everyone has a great week. I'm out of town again this week so I may or may not be able to post. "In the long run, we shape our lives and we shape ourselves. The process never ends until we die. And the choices we make are ultimately our own responsibility." Eleanor Roosevelt
10.08.09 = Nothin’ but corn! In my travels this week I took a back road for a few miles to d-stress and enjoy the amazing blue skies. I turned down this little country road and found nothing but corn. Corn as far as the eye could see and further than my lens could reach. I stood up on my running board to get this shot. These are the colors here in the Midwest this time of year, golden fields and aqua blue skies! I’m glad I got this shot the other day, it’s raining here and plans to do so all weekend. Have a great weekend! “Before the reward there must be labor. You plant before you harvest. You sow in tears before you reap joy.” Ralph Ransome
10.09.09 = From sunny corn fields yesterday to foggy corn fields today. I came across this foggy corn field the other day and pulled over in the rainy mist to shoot it. I played around with this one in PS to get a pen and ink type of look. (check out in XL) It’s fun to try out new things every once in a while. The scene reminded me of a few oil paintings I purchased last weekend at an art show from a young artist with a wise soul, Luke Stretar. His work just captured me with its depth.
