I visited the family farm east of Peoria for the last time this year, but will be back up in the spring, as usual.

The harvest has been over for weeks, so the landscape has been transformed to the fallow fields with its stark beauty.

I photographed this corn crib to the northwest of the family farm for the first time back in April of 2022.

I was struck by the haybales that stretched out over the horizon. It reminds me a bit of a Pieter Brueghel painting.

I also photographed an old gas station in the nearby town of Deer Creek.
