Default Patterns in the fields

Got the following two shot this morning from a farm field I drive by every day on the way to work. I've been waiting for weeks for the crops to get to the right size so the pattern would really pop out. The last one I took one morning at about sunrise. After several shots I thought I'd try one with my flash. I almost deleted it because it didn't look all that great in the camera, but the morning dew really stands out once I could see it on my computer.

Thanks. Now if I can just get better at what piece to focus on. Wearing progressive lenses makes it really hard to tell if something is sharp or not.

make me laugh .. I've got the same issue .. the worst is when I pull shots up on the monitor, i tilt up and down 3 times just to see the whole shot .. my buddy got his lasered, but I'm afraid ..
