A field of mielies ( maize or corn), this mielie is finely growned , it is then made into a porridge by mixing water, and cooking. It is the staple diet of millions of people in this country. One mielie, is equal to an ear of corn.

LOL.. Rod..sometimes I blush, well this is the time...you have guessed it, I have stooped so low. Yes, this is a slight HDR, I quite like it that way, it really reflects what I saw that day. Now am I disqualified from this challenge ...:-)
Thanks Photogenix and Dougy...glad you at least liked it.

I don't think our Jill would stoop so low as to use HDR Dougy, Ernest can you interrogate our Jilly to see if this is a proper picy or not:-) Don't worry you can have fun making up after we extract the truth a:-)

Thanks for this, Jill. This is just what I had in mind for the challenge except for Colorado is little more than a cloud of dirt right now. It borders on HDR but I like it. The sky and corn colors compliment each other.

Thanks to you all for the kind words. We are having thunderstorms daily, so the sky is like that each day at the moment....will never complain we need water so badly, in this part of the world.

Beautiful shot Jill!. The sky looks terrific, I like the diagonals the winds made to the clouds from the center to the sides.

Nice balance of patterns - plant leaves and cloud shapes. Elegantly detailed too.
