The Architecture of Agriculture


Wisconsin.  The corn is everywhere, and huge fields of corn disappear over the hills and go all the way to the horizon.  I would have photographed those fields, but I was on the interstate, so there was no way to pull over, AND I elected not to risk "an airbag moment."  The other thing that I saw everywhere were silos, and all the piping that connected them.  I wasn't sure which was more interesting, just the tower of pipes as a close-up, or the wider view with all the tanks.  So I chose the wider angle shot.  Oh, Wisconsin is known as "America's Dairyland" and much of the corn is used to feed the cows.
