Fields of Gold

in #colourfulphotography8 years ago (edited)

Driving around for the last few days it's nice to see the landscape is becoming more colourful with the new crops starting to appear.

This is a field of golden oil seed that I spotted and spent half an hour driving around in a huge circle to get a decent angle on the field.

I eventually found a farm on Bluntisham Heath Road selling Duck eggs and popped in to get the photographs below.
The angle of the first two images is facing south west using a camera lens hood to avoid glare from the sun.

The third photograph was taken a few days ago of the sunset. Using the 30 mm lens gives a great wide angle.

oh nice short by nuce camera.

Thank you moon, it is a very good camera.
I'm still learning more of it's functions. The 30 mm lens is amazing.

Gorgeous field. The sky above was pretty magnificent too:)

It was quite elusive to find a good vantage point. Kept seeing these brief flashes of gold as I was driving.
The more I photograph this landscape. The more I love it.

That's a beautiful color combination, blue, green, white, pink & blue. I think it really pays to have a nice camera to make a great shot like this. ;)

You can't beat natures colours. It's so nice to have a bit of sunshine to get out and about.

The first one is my favorite! :D Color is finally popping back up around here and its glorious.

Tell me about it. Winter seemed to have dragged on this year. Sunshine yay! :)

The rapeseed flowers are very bright and colorful, but I believe that many are very allergic to the pollen! That first shot is a beautiful Panorama!

They are a true indicator of summer here, and you are right many people are allergic to it apparently?

Everyone it seems, have allergies these days. It was a very rare thing when I was a kid?

Allll that driving, sure paid of!! I do preafer your headline picture,😀💗 if i might say so.
Like your story about it, i feel better now, that Im not alone in moving around to find the angel;)
Stunning work😀👍🏻💗

The first image was the one I was after and yes you are not alone when it comes to searching for the right angle. :) You've just got to do what you've got to do to get it. :)
