wonderful image!
Cotton Snow LOL
Awesome capture, Jock!!!
This is the "just do it even if it is wrong" approach so favored by business. I don't know if you have ever been to the blacksmith shop where so many of the early Rube Goldburg machies were repaired before hydraulics. Welding a cast iron gear that has broken in half? Taping flex tubes that have rusted out from fertilizer aggresiveness on a drill after galvanize flashes.
It's amazing what they left behind... great shot!!
very interesting! Super image!
Seems like an awful waste. But tallpindo is right, that's big business. Get it done fast and get out, never mind the losses. A great capture, it should be published in a national newspaper to show the amount of wast that goes on.
Great shot of the cotton left behind and lots of it Jock. because we don't grow Cotton over here, the last time I heard "Cotton Picking" expressed like your title was when it was quoted by Yogi Bear er! or was it Huckelberry Hound lol.
Could some of this been downed by the storms? Hard to believe they recovered any of it? A Mystery! ;)
I do not think soo for it would be dirty looking from rain and this do not look dirty. I can be wrong and it looks like ie was just harvest
I use to see a same here down under. I would say this is a messy bussines. Great shot.
I know some about cotton and harvest and I would say this is what I've always seen just after harvest. the only time I've seen it cleaner is when it was hand picked and I haven't seen a field done like that since I wore knee socks. Love this shot. I've always loved the sight of cotton fields.
GREAT comment ! Your picture...a good illustration !
Sure does look like they left quite a bit behind, there. Nice contrasts tho, with the photo.
Very interesting Jock..super capture! Thanks for sharing :)
Very cool capture!
that is aweosme nice image :)
Great image! I agree that this should be posted as an example of waste!
This is a fascinating shot! May they are seeding or something.
Excellent capture..
I have a capture from south of Dallas that is very similar to yours.I know nothing about a cotton pickin' thing! so I am no help.superb perspective
Umm, do it better? Maybe. At what cost? Friends, we consumers dictate the way things get done. Good pic, though.
Superb. Your masterpiece is flawless. 5+.
It does seem wasteful. Great capture, Jocko!
Jocko, your artist's eye has captured this picked cotton field and the waste with clarity and fine detail. At least a bit of waste in a corn, wheat, or bean field goes to feed local birds, rabbits, and other critters. This will only feed weavels, which the cotton farmers do not want, and will go to waste unless field mice gather it up to make bedding for thier dens, and maybe some birds use a bit for nests. Fine capture 5++ !!
They need a vacuum cleaner! :)
great foto, here in holland they would have made an subsidised job of handpicking the remains. They tried something along those lines already.
You are right Jock, I think the cotton picking machine needs some serious servicing...such a waste ! Nicely composed capture showing us how NOT to pick cotton ! ~Cheers~
Interesting documentation of this cotton field. Looks like a cotton storm went through there.
Somebody's got to get out there with a rake or vacuum and pick that stuff up! Does no one no good just lying there. Stellar POV and DOF in this capture, Jock!
