Thanks for the comments. No corn, just those feathery reeds in a field. This is right next to Kmart east of Latham circle, looking west.

About walcek
walcek Photography has always been a hobby since I saved up babysitting and lawn-mowing earnings for my first SLR back in the 70s as a young kid. I like the random, beautiful things that most overlook in today's hectic pace.
