Canola with old windmill - no nymphs today!

I drove to Melbourne on Saturday and stopped at the same paddock of canola that the ballet nymphs featured in last week! This is what I set out to photograph last time. The nymphs weren't with me this time :)

[Sam]

I'm loving this! Where is it, maybe I should visit before it all turns to dust! FAV

[Poppo Livy]

@gigiflower It actually turns to seed Sam. Are you sure there are no nymphs in there Denise

[Sam]

@terryliv And what happens to the seed?

[Peter Grave]

The seed is used to make canola oil Sam

[Peter Grave]

Nice shot Denise.We saw heaps of it last time down the newell highway.

I'm assuming us Brits call this Oil Seed Rape? Still beautiful to see at this time of year (when it's already been harvested in the UK). Love the cows in the background, added interest.

[Wendy]

LOL...I like how in the very very back where the cows are it looks dreary..like you need to stay in the canola field to be all bright and cheery

@gigiflower @terryliv @peterlgrave @jillhempsall Love all these conversations going on while I'm uploading the rest of my photos!! Sam - these paddocks are along the Hamilton Hwy - sorry just before it near Foxhow, but there are a lot on the highway. The other lot are around Bannockburn and Teesdale.
Terry - thanks for answering Sam's question. I looked hard for nymphs but couldn't find them!
Peter - thanks for answering Sam's question too!
Jill - yes it is the rape - I think we just changed the name to something more acceptable!

@jillhempsall @gilbertwood that's right Denise, I don't thing rape spread has the same ring to it as Canola spread. :)

[Cheri Bellavance]

fav. Love the cows in the background! so colorful

[Kat]

Beautiful shot. I'm wondering if the Nymphs were responsible for beheading the windmill and maybe thats why they're missing? ;)
