  1. Can almost feel the sunshine on those petals! Just what I need to warm my bones, its been such a cold dreary few days!

    I often think the field flowers are the most lovely.

  2. I am Red/Green colourblind so I can't see them at a distance, only when I am up close, same goes for autumn colours..real pain!

  3. Hi Gary, like Zoe, this is a warming post, and so sorry about your red/green thing, but glad you can see them up close, for this is a striking color. I do love all poppies. The owl photo in your last post was stiking as well. I do love all owls, too. :-)

  12. Lovely, and a reminder to me to toss out some poppy seed -- mixed with sand -- soon. The come up between my bricks and flagstones.
