Poppie fields

[Hair Bear]

I had to get into the middle of the field for these and the crop was at over hip height

felt like a kid again, waiting for the farmer to shout 'oi you get arf my land'

But they are only growing in this one spot, all the fields around don't have them either.

Those always remind me of World War one... It is the flower that grows in flanders they say over the graves of the dead soldiers there. I've never seen it but I used to buy the poppy the DAV sold on what was armistus (spell wrong I expect) day. That is what photography does best I think, tweek the memory.

I really like the first one. Great shot.

I love the second one the isolation is very apt for a red poppy.

Reminds me of the wizard of oz..."poppies will make them sleep"...

#2 has really nice detail and focus.

Beautiful view! I've seen the odd one in gardens, but never a whole field like that. The second shot is sweet, with the selective focus.
