Nice shot! I remember they used to sell the paper ones when I was at school to collect money for World War veterans.

poppy is a great name for a flower! In belgium, and surely in France too, some people call their dog like that! Funny! I love how the flower is hiding her heart, I love the pastel tones of the background with the nice red of the poppy! Really nice composition!

OH, I LOVE poppies and this photo is a perfect show of one...very beautiful!

I had a surprise in my garden this year..I had planted poppies last year from seed and had no success with them taking. But to my surprise one of the seeds must had made it, because I now have a poppy plant growing...can't wait till it blooms for me. I'll be taking a picture of it, of course! LOL!

oh your DoF is soooo tiny - i can see the one petal appears to have a sweet crisp edge and the rest a sweetly fades into a soft focus. This is done most beautifully.
