WOW, a busy week so no time to shoot any images until Friday.  The image above is of my good friend Steve Kent.  Steve works for our organization on the investment side and he is interesting, funny and very knowledgeable person.  I have enjoyed his friendship for several years.

So Saturday morning I’m very anxious to get out and shoot some images.  As I look out the window I see a gray overcast day with windy conditions.  Well you take what you can get.   Going through Epworth, Iowa I came across this old John Deer tractor setting near a garage and stopped to capture this image.

Yes I did insert a different sky and I’ll admit I didn’t do a very good job of it.  The grey / white sky that was in the original image was just yuk!

A little outside of Epworth I came across this Buffalo.  There were several of them in the field.  It was hard to find a place to park.  I had to leave half of the car sitting on the roadway with the flashers on.  It’s not every day you see a Buffalo wandering around. 🙂

Finally just before it started to rain (pretty hard) I captured this lonely combine sitting in a freshly harvested corn field.  Its work done for another year.

I know from a photographic standpoint there is nothing special here, but it was good to get out and shoot even if the conditions were not very favorable.  I hope you enjoy your weekend.

Thanks for stopping by and be careful.
