This isn't my best work... I shot these while driving through Illinois on my way back from the Blue Ridge Mountains... I was near El Paso, Illinois around sunset and the scenery was just stunning. There is something about those miles of corn fields... Some sort of solitude. I liked it though.

Hey, Josh, I love the colors in those pictures! What a beautiful evening that must have been. I also admire the stillness and solitude of the country roads and fileds of Illinois.
