my neighbor's farm,
this morning, approaching storm from the southwest as the sun broke over the field here from the East

I loved the juxtaposition of the bright field against the stormy skies coming in; was cool to watch the storm come in as the kids were getting ready for the schoolbus

I love the pastoral peacefulness. Something about the silos rising up. I love it. Might be cool in a sepia to make it look old. :~)

ha! that life is not so simple! he & the kids are up at 4am everyday to milk the cows, and he is working still when we head to bed..it looks nice but it is a long day & hard life, 7 days a week, 12 months a year; and not very productive $$ wise either, relative to the amount of time put in, the smaller farmers anyway...the larger mechanized ones do better

Terrific dramatic sky. Once again I'm impressed by how wide 50mm can feel.

Nice. Super moody sky, and really caught that "storm light."

I love scenes like this. Makes me think of a movie still where there is disaster and chaos right around the corner.

Wow, incredibly dramatic sky. Which we had something as interesting over here, it's just been grey and wet all day long! Reckon you could pop the sharpness a little with some USM or smart sharpen.
