Yesterday afternoon a friend invited me out to a family member’s small farm – ranch – to enjoy it, harvest some food, and take some photos. We got out there about 4:45 pm and stayed an easy 3 hours.
To the south, seen here, is a vast plowed field, ready for the next crop. We plant year-round here, varying crops with the season and the need. My friend’s family farm is just a few acres of organically grown vegetables and herbs, but surrounding it are larger commercial fields.
The flatness of the earth and the small hillocks and gouges made the lowering sun cast shadows in the dirt. I pushed the photo in contrast to see the extremes to show off textures not just in the soil, but also in the hills beyond.
More to come!
