Taken same day as www.flickr.com/photos/138912516@N03/24384412161/in/dateta... -- I was originally going to throw this one away but decided it was worth keeping when deleting old photos today. It shows very clearly why the snow could become so golden in the sunset that day.

The cattle pay no attention to an LNER Azuma as it climbs away from Markinch towards Lochmuir summit working a Kings Cross to Aberdeen service.
Happy Fence Friday !!!! Though it has been about 50 years, I can remember it like it was yesterday.....I was 14 years old, working during summer break on a local farm. It was a hot August and the corn was ready for picking. We hopped off the rickety old flat-bed truck at one end of the field. I loosened my belt and took the corners of a half-dozen burlap sacks and pulled them through my belt so they hung to the ground. Bobby, the farmer's son , told me to turn around and hold a bag open and start walking backwards down the first row. As I took a step in reverse, he took a step towards me, carefully grabbing the end of an ear of corn and feeling the tiny kernels through the husk to determine if it was ready. As he tore off ear after ear, he would toss them into my bag until it was full, and we would do this for 12 straight hours. The bags full of corn were heavy, the sun was scorching, but what makes me smile, is that I can remember the joy of grabbing an ear of corn from that field, pulling back the husk , and biting into that incredibly sweet, tender, juicy delicious August corn, as I stood there, surrounded by corn stalks over my head....
Just before dawn in the bean field. If you have a second, click on the picture to put it in the light box and look to the lower right, you can see the cross rows which really dictated my composition putting Center Grove, appropriately, in the center. BTW, Cross Rows allow the huge mechanized planters to plant the entire field without wide turnaround spaces. Have a large weekend and thanks for the look.

ALL IMAGES ARE BEST seen On Black, yours too!
My husband and fellow photographer Paul is a hard man to photograph as his camera is always 'glued' to his face, tee hee.
The corn was golden-ripe, I had been taking 'close-ups', when I spotted him, yes I had finally been able to get him in a red jacket, after all these years, now it was MY turn to put a 'figure in a landscape', tee hee.
It is such a good illustration of what different lenses do, here you have the compression of the telephoto lens which makes the sharp corner of the field almost look like a straight line.
Have a golden day and thank you for your comments, M, (*_*)
