"The Master in the art of living makes little distinction between his work and his play, his labor and his leisure, his mind and his body, his education and his recreation, his love and his religion. He hardly knows which is which. He simply pursues his vision of excellence in whatever he does, leaving others to decide whether he is working or playing. To him he is always doing both."

The fields are great in the harvest time. I love the deep yellow and bright brown colours of the crop.

what a great sky that is, and I love the gentle curve of the path cut through the corn......the field next to my house is full of corn ready for the harvest as well - a familiar sight this time of year....

A very fresh autumn harvest feeling here Russ. Like the lines too.

Great capture Russ! We saw a lot of this driving through Iowa and the rest of the midwest. The skies out west are spectacular just like this image. You see a lot more of that out west than we do here in the east...I miss it already! Well done!
