Bringing in the Crop by hjbenson

Bringing in the Crop

A lot of the crops around here are still hand picked. Fifty anago it was mostly migrant workers. Now most of the workers live in either Cumberland or Atlantic County year round. This is a small field off of Rt. 540 in our township.
Great capture

Nice capture of harvest time. It's good to see how the crops are brought in. Love the red truck for contrast.

@naomi Thank you Naomi, most crops are harvested by machine, but there are still a couple that require the human element

I love this Harry! I love the little bits of red throughout the all the green.

I'm going to agree with a couple of others here Harry. Those little pops of red throughout really make this a standout shot.

@webfoot Thank you Paul, I hadn't notices the red outside the truck until after I took the photo, just got lucky
