- Description
- A digital aerial photograph depicting rice fields along the lower Combahee River in South Carolina. The image has several broken rice fields in the lower right corner, appearing golden against the deep blue of the river. The winding river and fields extend to the horizon line, with several patches of trees on either side in the background. Around the top quarter of the image, the remnants of a railway appears as a dark horizontal line across the image.
