America's
Diaryland 2
(8/4/04)
This photo was shot on a golf outing for work. It's also part
of my "America's Dairlyland" series. There was a time
when these bright red barns and blue Harvester silos were everywhere.
Now, sadly enough, they border the back nine of the local golf
courses. The only way these farmers are able to make their money
for retirement is when they sell the land that's been in their
families for years, to some local developer who will make even
more money off of it. I love the way the bright red and blue
stands out amongst the green, but there's something somber to
me about how out of place this farm feels on top of this finely
groomed golf course. What a sad state of priorites. |
