My World #3

Last week I shared some photos that might not have looked at all like Kansas. This week is more traditionally Kansan. South east Kansas is a land of gravel roads, and small towns that once served as centers of rural farm communities mixed in with the old mining 'camps'.
This time of year the ravel roads are lined with fields of soybeans and corn ready to harvest. White tail deer begin the rut soon and are seen more and more at times of day other than dawn and dusk.

Theres always something down the road here in South East Kansas.
To see more of the world and to show your part of the world visit:

Had to laugh about the "There is always something down the road in south Kansas!" Believe it or not - here, too!
Great shots! Cheers, Klaus

Love all the colors in your Kansas scenes. We have farm parts of New Jersey that look a bit like that. You have really captured the beauty of the landscape.

Love the colors of your road and view, We went thru Kansas many yrs ago, found it to have its own beauty.

So vast and open and very flat. Looks a peaceful part of the world with lovely clear light.

It looks alot like my part of NW Oklahoma, in fact I had to check it was SE and not SW!

Good to hear that Kansas grows corn and soy beans which fx nitrogen in the soil and therefore must be a great rotation crop. We love down a dirt road and love it. Great photos and very interesting too.
