Harvesting Ranunuculus

As I saw this scene unfolding, I ran up the hill. This field worker gathers his harvest and brings it to the truck, to put the cut flowers in water.
A big thank you to Kathy Cline, for letting me use her long lens, for the day. Without it, this photograph would not have possible.

Love the expression and pose, and the movement throughout the image by way of the floral coloring and lighting. It looks like a winner to me..in my humble opinion.Isn't that lens beautiful! I love my 100mm f2.8L macro/prime lens. It's a favorite with me also. It's so sharp! #9387921
