Fab light on this Joe. Glorious. I'm guessing there is a reason why it's vertical as my natural feeling is to want to view horizontal. The light, shadow, contrast between warm and shade are utterly superb.
Make your life spectacular!

I cropped it that way because I was doing the edits at 12:30 AM after coming in late and tired!!! I know better than to do that! My mistake. Here's a horizontal:

Definitely a better choice. Thanks for your input.

Nice action Joe, and the repost does give a better feel for this mulie in motion!

Is the ditch lined with plastic sheeting? It certainly gives a strong reflective surface and the distinctive blue shade.

Hey Carol,
The ditch is lined with gray concrete and the shadows give it the cool color. I couldn't remove it without changing the other colors drastically in LR. I need to learn more about LR. I don't know if it's possible to change the cast, but I certainly welcome advice from anybody. Thanks, Carol!

I would never have guessed concrete! I rather like the blue shadow colour in this instance Joe, and it certainly doesn't detract from the appeal of the image in my opinion. Like you, I would leave well alone with the other colours being so spot on.

I don't use LR so can't help in that area.
