You take a subject of which there are literally 1000's of on youtube and somehow make it special. You have the knack to capture the emotion of it all.

[fabriceparmentier]

Few times a year there is a message announcing a new video is availble : it means emotional watching...
You are doing good : precise pictures, appropriate music, gorgeous light : what else ?
A feeling of large spaces worked by few talented humans.
I wish you all the best.

Brilliant Doug. This is what America is all about.

Dude, the transition from the toy tractors to the real ones - that was amazing!

I love how you introduced the harvest with the kids as that is when most of us started our love for farming

[cornfedlife]

Another beautiful piece of cinematography! Absolutely breathtaking. I love those twilight shots with the gorgeous skies in the background!

Thanks Doug for sharing the annual LaRosh family wheat harvest. I along with other wait for this video each year, it's like to other video posted. Of all the aspects the video displays, I really like seeing how the children grow/mature each coming year. Thank you and the LaRosh family.

To me this is an annual event that I look forward to every year. This is what America is about, hard work, dedication and family. Great job, very well done. My only complaint is that I wish you did more but I am so thankful for the ones that you do.

[jasoneberle]

Tracy did a good job verbalizing the feeling I get. I was able to help harvest 1700 acres during one week of vacation. It is something I look forward to all year.
