DescriptionThis image depicts a cement lined irrigation ditch near the West Mesa in Albuquerque, New Mexico. The ditch is filled to the top with water and sixteen silver hoses can be seen running from the ditch to the alfalfa field to the left. A man is fiddling with one of the hoses farthest away from the camera. The field is surrounded by a chain-link fence. Finally, a red farming tool, which was meant to be pulled behind a tractor, can be seen in the center of the field.On View
