I was driving down the road and this crop duster was spraying a salvage yard of trucks and equipment for weeds.

I pulled of the road and this was one of the shots I got.

Nice photo. Hope the weed killer wasn't poisonous?

Very good capture, you even got nice prop blur. I always wanted to fly one of those, looks like fun!

Thank you for looking.
What things this day aren't poisonous.
I did not hang around after the shot.

It takes a lot of good judgement to get in and out of some locations.

I have spoken to a local duster that is no longer flying because of his health and he said that he had survived two crashes while dusting, one from engine failure and one from contact with the top of a tree.

Thank you for looking.

DePratt, is your vehicle red? I see a red vehicle reflection on the nose cone. Love planes and this photo has it all. Great detail, color and the sense of speed. Thanks for sharing it.

That reflection is from two red trucks. A Kenworth and a IH sitting at the edge of the road.

I feel honored to have gotten this shot and double honored that someone thinks enough to say so.

Thank you Greg for your comments, it make a person want to get out and try for more of the same.
