Soybean Plant, Sun, Bird Shit

 

I guess this is my attempt at agriculture photography humor.

Soybean Flower, Water Drop

 

Now that the beans are harvested, I’m finally getting around to posting some mid-summer soybean photos.

Did you know that soybeans produce flowers?  Like pieces of snow stuck underneath the leaves on the stems…

So I’ve been out for another round of soybean photos…

I had the chance to ride along one morning and capture some planting in progress.  It was a great excuse to get outside on a beautiful morning. And tractors are fun. Thanks, Pete! 

The third shot is actually from my first round of photos.  I’m no expert, but as a part of the conditioning process, beans are vibrated around on big noisy tables. Somehow–magically, if you ask me–the good beans drop from the high corner and the broken ones drop from the low corner. 

I’m not sure why the good ones travel uphill.  

Maybe they’re just fighters.
