I did lots of miles through the corn and soybean fields today. I had meetings in Des Moines and then it was on to Cedar Falls. Along the way a little while ago as it was getting dark you could see lots of this going on.

I stopped to experiment with my camera and realized right away I forgot my tripod. Not good for low light shots. But that’s never stopped me from trying. These first two pictures are of the same combine making the same path through this field.

These are all along highway 63 north of I-80 in Iowa. It kept getting darker but that doesn’t stop these guys. I know it’s raining in a variety of places throughout the Midwest but it wasn’t here. Unfortunately it has the World Series in delay tonight.

I tried to shoot a video clip but at this point it was full dark. So here’s what you get without a tripod in the dark and ready to get to your hotel room so you can begin posting. Actually it’s a nice colorful effect that shows how bad my hand shake is.

That’s the extent of my creativity for the night.
