This black-and-white aerial image shows a predominantly rural landscape with large rectangular agricultural fields laid out in a grid-like pattern. A few straight roads run vertically and horizontally, dividing the farmland into sections. Small clusters of houses and farm buildings are dispersed along the roads, with more concentrated settlement appearing toward the bottom and right edges. Some fields show tonal variations, suggesting different crops or growth stages. The upper right corner shows partially developed roads extending into undeveloped land. The photograph is marked 8226-212 in the top right corner, with “Fairchild Aerial Surveys Inc. N.Y.C.” printed at the bottom right.
