Hi Graham,

Let's say about 30 years ago I spent nearly two months every day other than
a few rain days, shooting wheat harvesting across the Canadian prairies  and
not one comes anywhere near the drama this does! Lots of good ones, just not
the dramatic effect here. 

I shot about 800 rolls of Kodachrome 36 frames using polarizer filters on
the key lenses, but nary the impact of this one.

It's beautiful, a great potential ad type picture for grain producers even
if it isn't showing a 1000 plus acres of grain.

The way the grain heads stand so sharply against the sky is wonderful in
detail.

Cheers,

ted
