Nice shot! I was going to try this very theme today while chasing the IC&E but never got the opportunity. 'Children of the Corn' go train watching! LOL!!

Great work Tristan. Glad you went for something 'different' on this quickly popular unit. Thanks for uploading!

Thanks guys. I try to deviate when I can. On a side note, it was worth falling into an irrigation trench and getting laughed at. Gotta love them ethanol plants!

Great composition Tristan. Here we all thought you sprinted into the corn for a road-side emergency! Wish I would have thought of it!

excellent shot, one of the very best that I have seen of this unit and on its first revenue run to boot!

I saw that 'leap' into the bushes you endured to accomplish this shot. Very graceful. You paid your dues for this one. I'm still laughing...

Great idea; well done!

It wasn't that bad of a fall. I only lost my footing there for a second with my right foot, although I recall thinking "oh great, how deep is this thing?"

Everyone, thanks for voting for this shot. I didn't ever think I would win a PCA with this. I appreciate it.

very creative photo Tristan! I for one have been known to clumsily interact with many nature and trackside "obstacles" (ditches, fences, bushes, trees, barbed wire, rocks, ponds, cattle fences, poles, posion oak) so I know taking one for the team to get a nice photo is worth so much more than can be seen! Hmmm, this photo has a very creepy "Children of the Corn" feel to it too! This coming from a cityslicker of course!

Intriguing shot. If it was going pretty fast, that's quite a tough window to get it in. Bravo.
