  • Cotton

    There seems to be cotton grown all over the place. Have not seen it here before though they have probably grown it for years. Not far from Caroona Liverpool plains.

    Better a full bottle in front of me
    than a full frontal lobotomy.

    Gee Hans - you almost got me there !

    As I scrolled down the image all I saw was the yellow from the canola crop and was about to shout back to you - until I got to the white fluffy stuff closer to home
    I like the layout of the image, although on my screen, the sharpness seems a bit off

    Vast swathes of the Liverpool Plains are used for this type of agriculture - and the coal mining industry wants what's underground - and I don't know where it will end up

      Overall image is soft it was mainly the colours I was after settings reflected HH shot with iso 100 F8 @105mm 1/640 I would say a smaller aperture may have been warranted.

      Pretty good in the cotton layer at 100%

        Nice contrast between the cotton and canola crops Hans. I'm sure that a great image could be had from a drone flying over the landscape.

          I was very tempted to get a drone. When I started reading the Gvt rules I was turned off. Particularly that you can't fly them in NPs In case you damage their helicopter.? ? I may get over it all and say bugger it I will take my chances but I am generally a law abiding citizen.

          I have made inquiries with NT govt re flying a drone in NP's there and it is very easy to get a permit, and it's free. I'm sure the other states/territories are much the same.

          Still a great song and I've sung it on more than one occasion.

        The horizontal bands of blue, yellow and white work very well here Hans.
