    We drove this area on our honeymoon. The horizon was orange from pollution and the valley was full of industrial buildings.

    indeed, the difference is startling.

    Some things never change. Here is a photo I took in the Fall of 2011:

    Thanks for sharing your photo yellojkt. It's good to know that the scenery still inspires after all these years.

    somewhere along the line someone identified this this pic. apparently this is a known artist from that area, a man that was known for his "flamboyant" dress. i dont recall his name.

    Those are haystacks, not corn shocks.

    Thanks for your comment. I looked at the tiff image for the picture at : memory.loc.gov/master/pnp/fsac/1a33000/1a33800/1a33822u.tif It seems to show a cornfield and stacks of corn plants, so the caption is probably accurate.
  • pgcosmin said:
    Definitely that is a stack of maize plants. The cattle eat the dried leaves during winter. The type of agriculture practiced there in the 1940s is strikingly similar to that of Central Europe.
  • phoppernowlin said:
    I've never seen these type of stacks.

    Hi, I'm an admin for a group called Edible Chesapeake, and we'd love to have this added to the group!
