what comes to mind by summerfield

what comes to mind

this was during the start of the snow/sleet/ice storm that battered the midwestern states yesterday. what normally would've taken us under two hours to drive to carol stream, illinois where my brother and his family live, took us almost four hours. traffic of course was slow; we passed by a few accidents, driver's errors mostly, and of course construction works.

funny how there's still some parts of farms that were still green. this is a drive by shot, at 45 mph in a stretch of a 70 mph highway. this brings to mind that $4 million photograph from a while back. you think someone would see this and buy it? it's only for half a million - i can't be that greedy!

thank you for your kind visits and comments; know that they are greatly appreciated.

And so are you! A finalist! Congrats for that! This is a very modernistic picture and well taken at 45mph - you were obviously a passenger!

Weird weather all around, glad you got there safely even if it took a long drive, congrats on all your successes in 2015 - the girl done Jolly good!

Lovely!! It almost makes an abstract! I have many shots that I have taken from a moving jeep during our safari....we called it drive by shooting as there were many times that we could not stop in those long hauls, but the views were breathtaking! Well done...

I'm thinking that the photo is at least 28 feet long ?

I love those layers and the use of the negative space. Sorry, I don't have half a million. Can I still put it in my favorites?!?
December 30th, 2015  
That was the first thing I thought of when I saw this photo! I hope you get your half 1 million because this one is equally as good as that one!

Nice to know you and Monique are in the finalists but so is Bill! I'm not gonna be able to vote this time!

I really like how the green pops, it does look rather cold though!

Beautiful wavy lines in the landscape!

@summerfield Stop it! Don't push the Fates. Let the chips (or votes) fall where they should.

I like the gentle slope of the land. It's very soothing. Nice capture, Vikki.

What wonderful curves you have there Miss V. Such perfect shape you have :)

That's what they refer to as a mountain there I believe.

Of course someone would buy it if they bought the other- maybe you should contact that person! I just like the lines of this.
