NM21-768-031 Regina, Saskatchewan, Canada Spring/Summer 1996
Located in the south central part of the province, Regina has developed as a service center for the vast agricultural industry that has taken root in this section of the northern Great Plains of Northern America. The large, angular looking, cultivated fields where a number of grain crops are grown, mainly spring wheat, are visible throughout the agricultural landscape. The Wascana River winds its way through the city in a northwest-southeast orientation and the runway of Regina Airport is visible along the southwest side of the city.
