There is nothing fancy about this photo. This river bottom road is in the Heartland for farming and hunting. Wildlife flourishes in this out of the way spot, where corn meets beans, meets wheat, meets hay ground. It is deer season and this is the type of place a deer might step out into the open at any time. Oh, the anticipation that flows through the veins. I noticed the Eagle soaring over while I was there, likes this hunting ground as well. Enjoy, but you must have permission from the owner to be there. Tell him I sent you.

From age 15 to about 21, I hunted on family land that had a similar feel, albeit with hills and ravines to hide the deer. For anyone who has been out for deer season, there is an unmistakable anticipation and overall sensation involved, from the smell of fall foliage, the crispness of the air, the sound of geese overhead (who seem to know exactly what season it is... and isn't waterfowl or upland game!), the warmth of your thermos coffee while waiting and warming up in the truck, the thrill of spotting your quarry, and whether you fill or not doesn't make the day. It's the entire process. Yep, it's a simple photo but it reminds me of my youth (I sold all my weapons when I returned from the military, and that's when my hunting days came to an end).

It looks like many rural scenes I've experienced here in Illinois - feels close to home.

I wish I was a Glow Worm, a Glow Worm's never glum, 'cause how can you be grumpy, when the sun shines out your bum?

Grew up in a farming district could be a shot from my hometown thanks for the memory like it.

The reason why the sun sets in the evening is because it wants to see the sunrise in the morning. I rise in the morning because I want to see them both. RvdB

Tick, I agree with Rob, that this could be Dutch flat land as well.
Think however that the 'density' of deer is somewhat higher there when compared to our area.
Very fine rural shot, Owd Fella!

o wonder that deer will be found in such a place. The only disturbing factor in this lovely view are the tyre tracks but that cannot be helped.

Nice textures and a feeling of 'being there' is evoked.

My thanks to all who leave comments for my work and to those of you who like one enough to make it a favourite. To touch just one person that way makes each image worthwhile. . . . . . . . . .. . . . "The question is not what you look at, but what you see" ~ Marcel Proust
