This is the last of my irrigation series...for now!
I caught the sun setting just out my
back door...
I thought I might give a little info also...
This system is 10 towers long,
and waters about 160 acres in a circle.
The amount of water that flows through
this is about 600 to 800 gallons per minute. Some systems pump more than that.
It is approx. 1/4 mile long. We have two irrigated fields that are side by side which is called a half section.
The little light on the top of the tower
comes on when the system is moving.
It can take up to a day and a half..I'm guessing to make a full circle.
Thanks Mel for the title!!! ;o)

HAVE A GLORIOUS DAY!!!!!

  Wow, what a fabulous image, Jeana!! You caught it at the perfect time, and Mel came up with a terrific title for it. Fascinating details on it, too. Do you have a farm? I love learning about what my BP friends do.

Good Afternoon EVERYONE!!!!
Thanks so much for your wonderful and kind comments!! I so appreciate hearing from you!!

Colleen...yes we do farm. We have approx. 3000 acres in which we raise mostly wheat...although we also grow corn, sorghum (milo) and soybeans.
Currently under this irrigation system we are growing soybeans that will be harvested this fall.

Again...Thank You Everyone!!! Your continued support means alot!!!

ENJOY YOUR DAY!!!!

  Such a perfect title to this HoT image, Jeana...leave it to SiS to come up with a great one! I have to say that your summer skies are some of the most beautiful I have ever seen...always such drama and unbeliveable color...I love hearing about your farm. My husband's family come from a long line of Nebraska farmers...lots of hard work!

  Wow, this is beautiful! Thanks for farming...it is a very hard job! Sorry you didn't make it to KC. I am trying to organize one for the fall here where I live....Keep that in mind. The fort we stopped in was only for the evening.....we stopped in the town to spend the night as it was so hot. We left the next morning for Colorado. I will let you know when we are in the area again......You are welcome to come here and visit too. There are a lot of things to shoot here too. :)

  Well I had to stop to put this in my favorites before I even commented, Jeana. It is so very special and everyone is right -- the title takes it right over the top. You and Mel are going to have to figure out a way to share the awards on this one. Stunning colors and composition and very interesting information.
