New Growth

The farmlands of Illinois... driving east, to pick up our eldest from college. Three days, up and back, but it is a pretty drive.

Thanks for stopping by... each visit is a gift of time. Take care, everyone.
Hey, @amandal! Sitting in a not-so-swanky hotel room outside Columbus. :) Who knew we would be trying to find a hotel room on graduation weekend of THE Ohio State. Waving at you through the window!

Love the fields. Enjoy your special time. Miss those days. A LOT!

Oooh, Columbus!! you going to go to German Village for dinner while in town? Autumn Eden lives there, should you have time for a meet up. Are you there for graduation? Or is it the stop over on the way somewhere else? Safe travels and congrats to your eldest!

Love the greens and lines, too!

@amandal Actually, bummer, the final destination is the Finger Lakes by tomorrow am, so we are just passing through, but I couldn't resist the shout-out as we are blowing through town. I enjoy your local shots, so this is a fun "drive by."

Long drive ahead! Should be fun to see some drive by scenes over the next few days...this one captures Illinois perfectly! View...nothing in the way of!

Such wonderful lines, and a great scene. That is a REALLY long drive!

Gorgeous lines and landscape.

@taffy I am reminded of your shot from a few days ago. This is "fly over" country, for sure.
May 10th, 2015  
@888rachel Yes... we are getting used to it, though. :)

I suppose you needed to drive but it sounds as if flying would be quicker? This field is going to be one of many fields all growing corn!

I love the contrast in shapes and colours and the layers in this shot. Fav

Beautiful layers and greens. This field almost looks poetic. Happy Mother's Day Rosie!

I love each fascinating layer!

Lovely layers and lines!

I love the way my eyes are drawn to each section

Amazing capture with lovely POV

The new growth is always exciting to see. Love your POV. Farming can be such a tough way of life, but there are also so many wonderful things about life on a farm. I come from a family of farmers in Kentucky.

Lovely rolling lines, and you have even found a field which is not as flat as a pancake. We are doing a similar drive to the east coast in three weeks for my son's graduation. We have done it a number of time over the past five years, but last time as both of my kids will now be at Uni in the midwest.

@ukandie1 congrats for your graduating son! :). I grew up back east, so I know that long drive very, very well.

Love the lines and contours of this corn field.

I like the stripes - and the luminous green shoots.

my daughter went to college in Iowa so our driving view was the same . . .
