Description
I took a lot of pictures out the window as we were driving across the country. Some of them weren't as sharp as they could be ... moving along at 75mph isn't an experience that lends itself to fabulous photography!
Thank heaven for filters.
Long stretches of I-29 through Iowa and Missouri are still closed due to damage caused by June floods. The Missouri River is still not back to "normal," and there were places where we saw fields that were still flooded.
Detouring around those flooded and damaged places allowed us to see parts of Iowa we wouldn't have otherwise seen. This was somewhere in the Loess Hills.

I have to keep looking at my little map of the states to see where you might be..I found I had NO idea where Kansas sits, my minds eye had it somewhere else entirely! I will follow your blog but can't seem to log on so that why I'm not leaving a message..
Wonderful, pastoral view - hard to believe you shot this from from a moving vehicle! You're getting closer - can't wait to see you guys! :-D
lovely country scene
very nice shot - sometimes exploring detours are the best part of a road trip.
Splendid view! Excellent shot! :)
We were in Yellowstone when 9-11 happened and we ended up driving back home rather than risking getting stranded somewhere if we took a plane...I loved what we saw of Iowa from Route 80...always wanted to go back...
A lovely vista of farm and land.
Cool photo, Tara Sounds like you are having a great trip
WOW it looks almost danish except for the house. Beautiful.
love the effect here... very well done!
wow that something about the flods. Texas will take the water now cool shot
Interesting to see this view of Iowa farmland as some of my grandmother's cousins emigrated here at the end of the 19thc.
Lovely image
Iowa is really lovely farming country, not as flat as Kansas, and it seemed to me the times I've been through it that it's greener, too. I could be wrong there. A lovely shot, especially given that it's from a speeding vehicle!
What a gorgeous and rustic shot...and it's in Iowa. I told myself I was going to look at post number 1701 from you, just to see if I could manage any type of a Star Trek reference, and lo and behold, you provide a gorgeous shot from Captain James T. Kirk's home state! How cool is that! A bit of dialogue from Star Trek IV immediately popped into mind. Gillian: Let me guess, you're from outer space! Kirk: No, I'm from Iowa. I only work in outer space. Yeah, my mind goes there, sometimes...wherever there happens to be. This is a great shot! I like it immensely.
A super capture of this lovely view. I love rolling hill country.
detours can be full of surprise as a camera stares warm hugs, Linda Kaye
Lovely countryside unless your car won't start (old memory). You didn't drive through Grinnell by any chance? In Andrea's defense the states due tend to have similar shapes in that part of the country. And the serendipity between you and Chip is hilarious.
Beautiful to see something like this. Aloha
great summer panorama- thanks for sharing! :)
That looks pretty good to me ,my wife has a wonderful collection of blurred hedges.
Great country scene Looks like my hometown scenery Hugs Susan~
Wow, what a wonderful scene!!!!
Oh, how many of these lovely farms did we see...? I can attest to the speed since I was driving:) Love the composition...so archtypal.
The quintessential rural scene--you've captured it SO well!!
Great capture Tara. It looks a little like Amish country, at least to me. Interesting info as to the flooding - and here we are in Phoenix, Arizona with 2.62 inches so far this year.
