Re: Geso :Tour De Farms
Thanks Igor, the tent at sunset seems to a favorite anytime I show these. So thanks to PDML folks for confirming that. The organized tents are indeed part of paid service so that when riders hit town the riders are directed to their spot where tents sleeping bags hot showers and I maybe food is waiting for them. The purveyors are called the Pork Bellies the pig being the unofficial mascot due in no small part to my sister -in-law's art. I think the price is around $100 per day but the hot showers alone are almost worth that after riding 60 miles in humid Iowa. I went by this spot at noon just after they were set up. I visualized how this would look at sunset and returned with the K-3 50mm and went on to the other two camps pictured. The less organized camp was a riding club who reserved the spot. By the way many riders carry their sleeping bags etc on the bikes and sleep where they drop.

Re: What does everyone now use?
Hello my name is Don and I am a cameraholic. Ironically my 1st serious film camera was a Ricoh. I bought it because I had access to a couple of Pentax screw mount lenses. When I went digital I went Pentax because of those same lenses. Today I use K-3 K-5 and now Q7. But those big boys seem a little bulky for air bus travel so I ventured into M4/3 with the Olympus line. So today Pentax 60% Oly 40%. Too many lenses for both systems to list. (see 1st words of this post) BTW I never go shooting with one of each - too many differences in buttons menus. I get confused between the 2 Pentax camera because the back-button focus is not the same place on both cameras. Frankly after they are in Lightroom I never look at which camera took the photo except when I am posting to PUG or the Annual. With all this equipment I should be better than I am, But its just a hobby.

Re: Peso 100 years of farming.
Thanks everyone for your nice comments. There was a field of wind generators I just liked the line of barn to the one. This old farm had gone from producing hay to electric power. Each tower plus its service road takes several acres of prime farmland out of production - a loss of hundreds of bushels of corn every year per windmill. They also kill eagles. But this plus ethanol production is becoming the Iowa mainstay. Progress I guess. There are so many fields of windmills we have started naming them.

Re: Thanksgiving Flower Small geso
Thanks Igor, I agree the 1st one is a little more dramatic. There is also a variety commonly called Easter Cactus, they can be distinguished by the leaf pattern. I think they can all be induced to bloom anytime of year by keeping them dry and in the dark for a period of time. I have not heard the term decembrist... interesting.

I agree with others that the first photo seems to be the best of the three. For my taste, the second one would have benefited from a bit more space around it, especially at the bottom. But that's my taste. My mom has had such flowers for many years (and still has) at her home. The interesting thing is the name. In Russia they are called decembrist, primarily because they bloom in December. I also remember somebody in Texas using the same name. I googled, and found some references to that name being used in Brazil. But it looks like most people in the US call it thanksgiving or christmas cactus.

Re: PESOS-Clipper Mills Cabins
That's a cool find. The vines in front really add to the photo. Did you take any a little wider? I wonder about the general setting.

Interesting subject, Jack and some tough lighting I agree. Still I like the contrast with the red sapling.
