Stubble field in the rain, Canada

May 15, 2021, 02:59 PM

Rain in a stubble field at the edge of Waterloo, Canada, where corn is planted by the highway between commercial lots. 

It’s April, a year in, and Ontario is locking down again. The sounds are rain on last year’s dried corn, stalks under foot, traffic noise, inland seagulls.
