Gorgeous colors, comp and detail Heather! I must go down the road to visit one of the local farms. He grows tons and tons of the colored corn for the hunters up north.

The color and detail are fantastic Heather, right down to the dust. We see this kind of corn in the fall used as fall decorating. Not sure if it is edible or not. Maybe more like field corn, animals eat it but not humans? We used to call it Indian corn. #9708767
