Harvest Time and more...




I took this photo trip with the Chicagoland Digital Photography meetup group on Saturday, October 8, 2011. One of the CDP member, Hally and his farmer friends
invited us to their farm to photograph their harvesting operation. It's amazing that the machinery/computer technology are used in this massive operation.
Only 3-4 people were involved in the harvesting of nearly 2,400 acres of corn and soy beans. Many thanks to Hally, Jim and Bill!
