Back road summer series continues, this weekend I drove around the Hastings Minnesota area capturing the agricultural landscapes.  The landscapes offered up simple calming views of the countryside lifestyle.  Crops were flourishing while we are experiencing a moderate drought, at least in the areas I was exploring.

Chowder Feed 2021 ACW style

Published

Apparently, It’s not cool to name and play with your food before you eat it! Meet Jaws and Pinchy, they were delicious.  Living in the Midwest I don’t get the opportunity to shuck lobsters so when asked to help, I jumped right in.  It was a thank-you dinner for Art to Change the World patrons who contributed $500 or more.  I had a blast photographing and talking with patrons of this non-profit.

Enjoy some of the images I captured while at the event.

Pallet Mountain

Pallet Mountain
My soul’s need to wonder led me to wonder about the industrial areas of Minneapolis and Saint Paul wanting to challenge my vision to photograph landscapes that I normally wouldn’t even take a second look at.  I viewed this as a man trying to create their mountain.  Were they trying to pay their respects to Mother Nature or something more deviant? 
Danger in the Woods
Danger in the Woods

Danger in the Woods has never looked so inviting but don’t be fooled by its beauty as Danger is not far away.  I found this sign warning me of the appending Danger of the cliff’s edge.  This sign needs to heed its own message.
