Poppies in fields of wheat green
It is really quite lovely, to see the bright red spots in the green fields which surround us. Usually the flowers are clustered around the edges, but it is possible to find a few in the middle of the field.
I had a tough time deciding which photo to post although they're all similar shots. I couldn't even narrow it down to just two. The reason I chose this one is that I like how some of the stalks are lit while the rest are in shadow. The three others that were contenders are at the overflow site: as always, I would be very pleased to hear what you all think.
To those of you who were interested in the apiary shot from yesterday: I'll try to get some more photos, to show how and where the bees actually have their hives.

I am very glad about the coming back of poppies and wild daisies in the fields and on road sides. I 'am waiting the coming back of blue cornflowers.
i think you've made the right choice. the wheat in this seemed to have been pressure and slanted making it a special composition!
In the portal I saw red lips surrounded by green. So I came to see and found a poppy. A wonderful surprise.
Very nice! A beautiful red flower in a sea of green.
I like this shot, those fanned out leaves do give it an extra dimension. I also like the darker green of the wheat.
Very nice..

I also like the following post but can't find a comment box or it's right under my nose and I can't see it!
The world always looks brand new in the early morning.

Kris, Jules and Ming: thanks!
Angela: it wasn't you, it was me (*grin*). I had the comments turned off by mistake, thank you for alerting me to that fact.
Beautiful shot!
