wheat

Harvest is late this year, as cold and cool weather stayed longer than usual. We've had more rain than usual, too, and fields are wet. This is after a storm, with lingering stormy skies. The evening sun did try to warm things up though. Strange weather this year.
This is absolutely beautiful. Fav!

I like the golden glow in this - it's a Fav for me... but are you sure it isn't in fact Barley?

@vignouse Thank you....it looks a lot like barley, doesn't it ... but it's hard red winter wheat. It is planted in September and usually harvested in July, though harvest hasn't yet started. There is very little barley grown in our region.

Now that is just gorgeous. Love the focus, colours and dof. (Also thought it was barley!)

This picture of mine posted a few days ago is also of Winter wheat (planted in October and about ready to harvest) but it doesn't have the long whiskers - http://365project.org/vignouse/365/2015-07-10

@vignouse You are right ... the beards seem quite short, especially compared to your image from last year. Wonder why. Even when we have weather or disease damage the wheat still gets that long stiff beard. Hope yours yields well!

@aecasey Last year's shot was actually Barley (although I said it was wheat as it gave me a good title!)... which was what prompted my comment!

@vignouse I knew the two looked remarkably alike. No matter how much I google images I can't really tell the difference when they are growing, only in the appearance of the grain after harvest.

April, I am Kathy, your get pushed partner this week. Your art is beautiful and beyond words. You are talented in many areas but I didn't see any abstracts in my initial survey. I love cats and your cat portraits are lovely. I have a twist for you. I would like you to do a cat abstract. It can be any style you wish and as abstract as you wish. Ok? Kathy
