Those who live in a rural area know that in spring, you must close your windows! This is the time of seeding. For people around the field, it means a rough floored, even if it was washed the same day, and a car covered with a mixture of pollen and dust… But it’s an interesting show especially for a photographer.
I had tried for 2 years to photograph the machinery in action in the fields. But there were a bunch of factors that sabotaged my plans: bad weather which turned the fields into a mud swamp, no winds to the raised dust, the distance of the machinery, an interesting sky, sun position to illuminate the dust, downright to the lack of time “timing”!
2 weeks ago, the stars were aligned: I had found a place to take a picture (or a few ;-)) not far from my home. This was it: the sun, little wind and tractors nearby. So I stopped, walked to the entrance of the field to position myself in the right angle with the sun and waited for the machinery to be close enough to photograph.
I have a preference for the first photo by the fact of the low sun’s rays that passes through the dust raised by the tractor.
Like patience and time arrange things well!
