Day 178 - Fields of Flax

Saw a field lit up with the pale blue of flowering flax plants - it just had to be photographed. That's Church of St Giles in the background - my oft photographed chapel on 365.

Climbed over a fence, down into a ditch and up the side to get this shot (in my office work clothes!). And then I had to get back.

Not quite as good as I hoped, but there you go, I certainly tried!

Love those colors! Hope you didn't get too dirty...

[Gena Pegg]

I love it!! Love the field of blue flowers and the church seals the deal!! Truly beautiful. FAV

[Padlock]

Well worth the effort. Lovely shot

[JoeBoo]

Very nice, Sir! Like it!

[Carol W]

Wonderful colours and composition, Kev. Worth the fences and ditches!

[Chippy Minton]

Really is a sea of blue, great perspective and nicely captured

so pretty. looks good from here :-)

[Carren]

I like it very much! And I'm glad you told the story of getting it. That makes it even better.

[MaryBeth Dailey]

Best viewed large! Seems like macros/tiny things and then landscapes/broad vistas need the magnifier. Medium shots, not so much. LOL This is so pretty and serene!

[Laurie]

Oh so beautiful! (I had to laugh at what you went through to get this...I noticed that I am doing that more and more...when did sitting in puddle to catch a shot of a tiny toad become acceptable?!?!)

[Wendy]

A beautiful shot! I love that the sky matches the colour of the flax.
