Linking to Weekend Reflections and Skywatch Friday

Right Side Up and Upside Down
Last Saturday I woke up feeling a bit restless. I didn't feel like dancing with Mrs. Mop, so I loaded Fergus up in the car and headed north to see Daughter and those magnificent grands of mine.
About 10 minutes north of town, I saw this flooded field and the barn. Of course there was a car riding my bumper so I waited until I got to the next intersection, made a u-turn, drove back by the barn, made another u-turn, stopped in the middle of the road and took this picture...
...and this picture. As you can see the farmers have their corn planted before the rain, but the rain was a little too heavy. I suspect this farmer will need to replant part of this field. Hopefully it won't be too late by the time the ground dries.

Great sky and that reflection is just perfect!
ReplyDeleteHere's to visits with the grands and u-turns for capturing spectacular photos.
ReplyDeleteSorry about the flooded fields but it sure did set up some gorgeous reflection photos! I had to chuckle when you were talking about making a U-turn...I do this so many times myself!
ReplyDeleteOh my goodness that top photo is beautiful.Time with your daughter and the Grands would be wonderful. Have a nice weekend. Hug B
ReplyDeletePicture taking devotion! I'm always too impatient to turn around and take pictures when I'm driving somewhere.
ReplyDeleteoh, dear. makes for a marvelous photo op, though!
ReplyDeleteA great reflection. Too bad about the flooding. With farming, if it's not one thing, it's another.
ReplyDeleteA great photo...glad you made the turn to get it.
ReplyDeleteI am glad you made that U turn as both these shots are stunning reflections
ReplyDeleteThe red barn looks terrific ! and the puddle reflection is simply perfect, well done.
ReplyDeleteIncredible photograph! Hi from Scotland.
ReplyDeleteSo glad you turned around, that shot is absolutely gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteHave a terrific weekend!
superbe endroit !
ReplyDeleteThat is such a spectacular reflection! Don't you hate when someone is behind you when you want to stop and take a photo? I'm glad you made a couple of u-turns for this.:)
ReplyDeleteOh, you are a woman after my heart. Were you grumbling under your breath about the car on your tail. I get very frustrated ... but I do the same as you ... pull over or U-Turn, whatever it takes. And see, you were right ...it was well worth it :)

ReplyDeleteYour reflection shots are wonderful. Oh, the poor flooded field, and the even poorer farmer!
ReplyDeletesuch a beautiful reflection's scenery... Hope the flooded field will be OK soon...
ReplyDeleteGreat reflection views . Also very romantic atmosphere. I like it and well done.
ReplyDeleteExcellent!!! What a gorgeous, wonderful photo of the pond and red barn!
ReplyDeleteYou chose such a beautiful day to visit your family! The puddle is pretty with the reflections but I hate to think the farmer's crop might need to be replanted.
ReplyDeleteThe photo was definitely worth the two u-turns! It's beautiful.
ReplyDeleteSo much water, but after 2012's drought, I'll take it!
ReplyDeleteHow have I missed this???? I love it. Well, now that I think...I was feeling real under the weather Friday...still not up to par Saturday...been stopping to visit a blog just every now and then.
ReplyDeleteWhat a great capture! We sure haven't had any of that rain here.
