This canal will be full to the brim during the growing season and is used to flood the fields for irrigation. Each farm uses the water as their turn arrives, then informs the next farm downstream when it's their turn.

It looks like winter is coming soon in this image. The power lines add a feeling of remoteness in this image.

Love the colours, a very clear photo. The crop seems a bit too tight at top to me.

Great perspective. Love how the water and the lines are kind of leading into the picture. That's a gorgeous blue in the water!

PS - what does "overlay for burning" mean?

I liked your story and the composition and colors are wonderful. Didn't post my photo for this day yet, but it was inspired by this one.

Hey, Roger! You brought out the colors in this one beautifully and it's a pleasure to look at. But you know, the best part (to me) is the way you stop the composition and keep the viewer in the picture with that fence/gate in the immediate foreground. Good seeing to include that bit.

Pretty blue color at the upper part of that canal. I like seeing the fields and towers in the background. Nicely done.

Nice job: light and colours wonderfully enhance perspective.
