Soybean Field
Photograph info: This photograph was taken several weeks ago, the same evening as the previous photo of walnuts. The soybeans have since been harvested; they'll be fed to dairy cows over the winter and spring months. Camera settings and post-processing: Shot with the Canon EOS 5D --Kathleen Comments
Love it, Love it, Love it! I am following your blog for a while, and it was pretty amazing all the time, but seeing your latest photos I am getting the impression that you are a group of thousand talented photographers looking for the best moments of the world. Thanks for sharing them with us. Great choice of DOF, gives a completely different atmosphere to the photo. Posted by TP@photoskiasi.com on November 15, 2008 5:02 AMBeautiful, beautiful...congratulations. Browns and yellows, two colors of fall I love the golden backlight and the luminosity of the soybeans and leaves. The people in the background add a nice human touch to this image. Beautifully done, as usual. Posted by Russ Devan on November 15, 2008 11:53 AMSo beautiful! Posted by Frida on November 15, 2008 4:22 PMYes Jon, I think it is ET, back lite by the "mothership" while explaining the crop circle code to a local. And who more likely to record the event and "conveniently" release the photo after the circle evidence has been destroyed by those "*harvesters in black," than that Connally woman? Go figure. *The government's Alien Connections Evidence Management Team (ACEMT) often paint their Evidence Eradication Devices (EEDs) bright red or even yellow and green to avoid attracting attention,(AAA) but we know, (BWK.) Perhaps Kathleen should go on Coast to Coast and explain just how she manages to get these shots anyway. Oh, and thanks Kathleen for another great adventure in the Durham Township Dimension.

Posted by aashish on November 17, 2008 10:45 AMAmazing photograph, specially I liked the backlight and background. Posted by Sam on November 19, 2008 7:17 AMThe silhouettes in the background really make this photo work. Nice one. Posted by PiXistenZ on November 19, 2008 7:35 AMGolder hour. The two people on the background really makes this one. Posted by Tero on November 19, 2008 11:09 AMStunning colours and details, DOF is spot on. Posted by Craig Wilson on November 19, 2008 3:42 PMWhat photography is all about. Inspirational work. Posted by Tom K. on November 21, 2008 9:39 PMThe story goes something like this....."I'm serious, these little beans are a great form of nutrition! Best part is, they taste better than meat and they are really good for you and the environment! We can produce soy medicines, soy milk and soy bread, and we can season soy to taste like beef and chicken and pork and fish! We can make soy sandals, soy purses, soy curtains and soy upholstery! And just think of all the methane gases that we can eliminate by not producing so many cows! We can keep the planet safe and still enjoy what we are eating and wearing!" As the potential convert walks away, the teacher cries out "Wait...I'm not finished! Where are you going?" The convert turns and says "all this talk has made me hungry; I'm going for a cheese burger, want one?" Posted by Willow on December 24, 2008 12:37 AMThe focus and lights are fantastic. :) Posted by desfocado on December 24, 2008 9:12 AMwhat light! such a beautiful narrative unfolds with the kids in the background of this field. a seemingly ordinary photo transformed because of the silhouettes of the 2 kids sharing some childhood secret. really beautiful and poetic. Posted by dimitri on January 11, 2009 3:13 AMLove how this picture is telling the story. Great job! Posted by KG on June 28, 2009 3:14 PMSpeak!
