Poppy Sunset - a photo on Flickriver

Poppy Sunset

            Explored #3 Front page, :-) thanks all. Really blown away by this. :-)

Have been on a mission for a poppy field in my local area for years now. Never any really luck. 

But last night i took my girlfriend for a lite bite. Which was yummy. After we had our medieval feast we went for a drive thorugh some country lanes. Some lanes i never knew where there. Which is strange for me. lol. We saw some cool un-used barns. Lots and lots of fluffy little bunny. must be only a month old. And out of the blue the sky just turned blodd red. i stopped to admire the glow and out of the corner of my eye i saw this field.,just blood red. Before i knew it i was jumping a bared wire fence and trecking across this amazing find to capture the poppies and sunset. :-)

It was nearly dark so i had to use long exposures to capture the beauty. I will have to go back during the day at some point. 

Enjoy people i have been dieing to share a poppy shot with ya. Hope this does. :-)
