Description:  The farmer's field was too grown up with vegetation along the fence line, and I didn't have the proper deforestation equipment to fix it quick to shoot across the field. Still, it can't get more soulful than a Southern consolidation southbound at Flanders! Canon EOS-3, Ektachome E100VS.
