The rice fields in September.Cina. September / October 2018.
From Wikipedia
Lóngjǐ are located in Longsheng County, about 100 kilometres from Guilin, Guangxi, China.
The terraced fields are built along the slope winding from the riverside up to the mountain top, between 600 to 800 metres (2,000 to 2,600 ft) above sea level.[1] A coiling terrace line that starts from the mountain foot up to the mountain top divides the mountain into layers of water in spring, layers of green rice shoots in summer, layers of rice in fall, and layers of frost in winter. The terraced fields were mostly built about 650 years ago.
Longji (Dragon's Backbone) Terraced Rice Fields received their name because the rice terraces resemble a dragon's scales, while the summit of the mountain range looks like the backbone of the dragon.
In early June, water is pumped over the rice paddies and young plants are transferred to the main terraces.
Caught this one from the side of the road, on the way back from Georgian Bay, on the way to Toronto.
Late October in the Fields.
I stacked a polarizer and a warming filter for this shot. The Polarizer to cut the glare and give some definition to the clouds and the 812 filter to return some warmth to the scene. The 812 filter dates back to the film days. I used it a lot when shooting ektachrome slide film which was always a bit stark and cold for my tastes. Of course you can warm up shots in post now but I like the 812 filter better. Anyway, there you have it. Those are soybeans on the right and the remains of a sweet corn patch on the left. Yes, the corn was over the top yummy. Have a great evening.

My attempt at the "Flickr Friday" theme "field".

Found this large hay field near Brighton, Colorado. Just out of view was a large combine machine, modern looking, had large lights on it and still working after twilight. It was probably the machine that created these lines and bales.
Farming looks mighty easy when your plow is a pencil and you're a thousand miles from the corn field.
