Ready For Harvest

I was driving a backroad in Amish country today and came upon this farmer and his work horse team ready to harvest some corn. It was a long day as my wife and I drove 350 miles picking my mother-in-law up from a hospital in Cleveland, taking her to a nursing home in Amish country, helping my mother with chores around her house, then returning home near Columbus. What a long day.

Nice capture. Your day sounds like it should have been several days!

Cool pic!! It does sound like a long day!!

@amyk, I sometimes think that the pace of Amish life is probably better for your health than the rat race we find ourselves in.

Cool capture. Do think they may be a little more laid back then the normal public. Yeah, and that trip does sound like a 2 day event, at least.

Wonderful shot! Love the vivid green.

@kwind, we have had a warm and wet fall so things are still green. We are waiting on the fall colors.

A beautifully captured scene. I cannot sit in a car for long periods at a time, it sounds as if you need a long rest now.

At least you managed to find the time to take this shot. I like the sweep of the field

Great composition, I loves the curved lines.
I hope you have your feet up after that long day.
