These shots are from one of my favorite spots up above a valley on the way down rt. 81 a bit south from Syracuse. I like the big red barn, the close horizon line, the striated fields, and how a cheap and simple digital zoom lens can make these kinds of view possible by blowing up the landscape. I have a deep fond spot for Central New York. The drive back home from work is a great pleasure.
it will be interesting to see if those areas get more wild as family farms continue to fade, thought this might be of interest:
