Took these today at the side of a barley field. There was a mass of flowers but it was difficult to get closeups because of the wind.

C&C Welcome

Thanks Tony......the shots were very difficult because of the breeze. I just struck lucky with that one and it was still just at the right time.:)

Thanks for the comments Ian........

The hard thing is getting a day where the breeze is low. I had a real hard time that day but it was beautiful being in amongst all of those flowers.:)
