The Iowa Photo
Time for one more
I was making my way along Ivanhoe Road near Ely on Oct. 12 after driving the length of the road to Highway 1 and back west. I felt pretty good with the photos of pipeline signs, which were the reason for my drive, and the double rainbow that appeared as a light rain dissipated. I had also photographed cloud formations that were on fire, lit by the setting sun. I initially drove past the scene of the tractor pulling the grain cart, thinking how many fiery photos do I need? But the drive to not let a good photo pass me by got the best of me, and I pulled my car to the side of the gravel and climbed outside.
