This picture was made when it was quite windy. The field is close to Boundary Bay, south of Vancouver, and the photograph was made from a public walkway that goes along the shoreline. There is some motion blur despite a fast shutter speed. It adds to the way the wind made itself visible by the motion of the grain.
The camera recorded the following information in the original image file:
