Cumulus Parade

Contrasts in the heavens and earth are evident here as cumulus clouds dot the sky over an unsown farm field in this view looking northeast from the Boyson Trail about .2-mile south of Boyson Road in Marion, Iowa around 3:02 PM on Sunday, May 2, 2010. This field would be the future site of Bowman Meadows, a new housing development, with construction beginning in 2012.
