I took this shot of a wheat field about a mile north of Pauling Field (aka Condon State Airport) in Condon, Oregon. Pauling Field is named for Linus Pauling, the only person to win two individual Nobel Prizes (1954 -- Chemstry; 1962 -- Peace). Dr. Pauling spent a significant part of his youth in tiny Condon (2000 population -- 759). Amazingly, Dr. Pauling was not the only Nobel Prize winner to hail from Condon -- Dr. William Murphy (1934 -- Medicine) was also raised there.
standing by a field and the hey fever just about to set in.
Don't sunglasses make my nose look big? or do I just have a big nose?
This wall hanging was inspired by a trip to Tuscany in October. Made collaboratively. Wall hanging sized.
Graphite on 500 bristol, 6 x 8 inches, of a nearby field in winter - when there was snow! Blogged at nemcoskyart.blogspot.com/2012/01/winter-field.html
Not an amazing composition or anything, but felt it was about time to try out this 90mm I've had for weeks now (I just love the 120mm Super-Symmar so much it may as well be welded to the front of my camera).
Results look pretty good, though the top corners are a bit soft. Note that I shot at f/8, so perhaps that, and the tilt, are to blame(?). Front/forward tilt to extend DoF.

My dreams are now as nightmares,
as I wander through and through,
My mind is now corrupted,
as I wander through the new,
New doors have opened to me,
and I've paused then to step in,
wondering, and puzzling,
at all that lies within,
I step then through the blackness
of the open portal there,
and I step out into wonder,
that I never then could share,
I meet then a real new sight,
as the colors swirl by,
I see a field,a whole new world,
and I step forth now, but nigh!
What are these things that dwell here,
oh black creatures of the night,
these skeletons and wanderers,
who blunder in the blight.
A road now falls before me,
going down into the field,
I see bright blooms around me,
and I hope they are my shield,
A shield now from the danger,
that now dwells within my mind,
among the red, and white, and pink,
I know not what I'll find.
Things rise up from the ocean;
sea of Red, and pink, and black,
and I wander on the road there,
looking now for what I lack,
my dreams have drawn me to here,
to this field ever bright,
And carry ever onward,
though my mind's not always right.
I walk now through the meadow,
and I wonder what it means
to ever, ever wander,
in this endless Field of Dreams.
We all love to shoot tulip fields and even though they all look about the same, they are beautiful by nature!!
We spotted a field of poppies when travelling from Cromer to Kings Lynn. There were many poppies but fairly distanced from each other. This is edited so as to be a mass of blurry colour.
Just as Trevor and I were heading home we saw a great opportunity to catch the remaining light. I got lucky with this shot, the wind was blowing the stalks around a bit. It calmed for just a second and I was able to get it.
This was not tonemapped or HDR... Just a bit on the contrast side... View Large and you will see what i am saying. Liz and I went down the street to a corn field that was just cut down. The whole day was over cast except for this one hour... It all turned out great... Unfortuantly it was a bit wet and muddy.

I've been off Flickr for a long time; longer than the last time. I will be slowly catching up with the photo streams of friends and contacts who I have had the pleasure of meeting online and offline. It got to the point where I had to make a choice between shooting, processing photos or doing Flickr. I've also been spending a lot more time looking at photo books and individual photography (and photographer) websites. My new tactic is to set a time limit on how long I'm on Flickr, that probably won't work but it's worth a shot (no pun intended).
That said, I think posting more frequently will help. So at least for the rest of the year I will try to post at least one photo daily. Time will tell if this succeeds.

This is the aspect that presents the field in summer after harvesting.
I took it one day that I decided to go for a bike ride.
Marston field - a few weeks ago hundreds of Greylag geese were feeding off the remains of harvested potatoes here...
