Oh they are really beautiful these red poppy-flowers! In my country the orange-colored are most common. They are Lovely even we see them as weed.

Ana, your poppy photos have been extraordinary. I've been watching them... seems surreal.

With only a few flowers and some delicate grasses a fine impression of a poppy field. Very strong.

This poem was written by a Canadian Army doctor during world war one, after one of his friends was blown into pieces by an artillery shell:
In Flanders Fields
In Flanders fields the poppies blow
Between the crosses, row on row,
That mark our place; and in the sky
The larks, still bravely singing, fly
Scarce heard amid the guns below.
We are the dead.
Short days ago
We lived, felt dawn, saw sunset glow,
Loved, and were loved, and now we lie
In Flanders fields.
Take up our quarrel with the foe:
To you from failing hands we throw
The torch; be yours to hold it high.
If ye break faith with us who die
We shall not sleep, though poppies grow
In Flanders fields.
— Lt.-Col. John McCrae

Tinha gostado mais da Poppy field II, mas agora esta é a minha preferida.
Enquadramento e ângulo bem pensados, assim como as respectivas tonalidades estão excelentes.
Parabéns.
