While I was shooting…the farmer and his family, I saw him taking a break in the field. Seeing him be, always the farmer, totally distracted my camera and drew it to him. The beans were beautiful and were preparing to be harvested.
The farmer wasn’t checking out their beuty…what interested me was that he was checking to see if they were ready. He opened up the pods and tested their ‘doneness’ by biting them. I just thought it was very cool and I was very happy that my camera followed him to the field.
On this Thanksgiving and always, I am thankful for the farmer and thankful that I live in an area beatifully rich in farming history!!!
