The Bluegrass is Kind of Brown ...


It was pretty brown out there... (Nan Rawlins/Equimage®)

I've been enjoying the Driving competition - the competition but not the grass. It's too bad there's been so little rain in this part of the USA.  The beautiful region of Kentucky known as The Bluegrass is not very blue, or green for that matter. The grass is kind of yellow, brittle, and - well - almost dead.  It doesn't photograph well.  The light bounces off the yellow grass, creating a color cast in the photography.  It tends to fool the eye too.  Makes you thin you have a color cast in your photography when you don't.
