Tomato field after planting (aerial)

aerialphoto

Shot this tomato field (at least as best I can determine they're tomatoes) in west-central Florida yesterday morning. The vertical lines are the sticks/stakes the plant grows up, and the round spots are the plants.

Cool photo!

Thanks for sharing.

What a great opportunity to take advantage of.

I think this is a primo shot. I would think a poster-sized image would do it justice.

I love the abstract feel of this shot. The tractor really tells/completes the story. Would be so cool to have a 40x50 in some AG business office.

Thanks everyone!

It took me awhile to figure out what the crops were. I looked at a couple of the more oblique images and realized the vertical lines were the stakes. I don't think I could have gotten everything so aligned if I'd tried

This is absolutely spectacular and one of the best photos I've seen in a while. I just love how even the lines are. As someone else said, it is dizzing but in a stunning way.

Such a cool shot. I love the lines, and the small tractor gives just enough to tell the viewer what's going on. It's not a photo that you can glance over, it forces you to take a long look.

Thanks all... shopping it around a little. It's about the oddest looking one I've done in a long time that's for sure
