I don't care so much about the flipping but I am intrigued by the smoke seemingly defying all laws of nature. Unless there was a strong wind from the back.

Thanks for the comments. The smoke really didn't bother me too much because I'm so use to our West Texas winds of 40-50 mph. I snapped this series of shot as Lane was starting up the tractor, hence the thick black diesel smoke.

On startup I didn't need to deal with motion ghosting. I shot many plowing shots without smoke, with dirt blowing up and different crops by my eye kept bringing me back to this center weighted shot. Gotta love West Texas clouds. Peace!
