Spring on the Praire

Rick Parchen - Seattle, Usa

Facebook page for updates Website for full portfolio The structure may be deteriorating but the view just keeps getting better. Anytime of year is great to get out and photograph stuff but I particularly enjoy spring since the normally dead and dry fields are alive and full of color. I tried to get some spring wildflowers in the Columbia River Gorge in Oregon but it was too early so I I turned my attention to the farming plains in search of old houses down the roads less traveled. This particular sunrise didn't immediately pan out as expected since the actual sunrise had very little color but waiting around for the sun to just start and peak through was worth the wait. Shot with Zeiss 35mm as a three-shot vertical panoramic. I also used a B+W Kasemann CPL filter. Enjoy!
