I can feel my hay fever kicking in just looking at it . Great shot, and well conceived it reminds me of the lavender fields in France.

Lovely colour and nice composition, but it's too small!

Thank goodness there's someone else like me - blasted rape and cow parsley are guaranteed to give me problems .

Lovely pic though - I too would have liked it a bit bigger

Lots of film bodies, a couple of digital ones, too many lenses (mainly older glass) and a Horseman LE 5x4.

The fields around here are covered with rape. At harvest the smell is quite horrendous

Yeah, I spent some time in East Anglia as a kid, it *really* stinks.

Also, forgot to thank you all for your kind comments... thank you

Wish there had been a nice shiny red tractor on that path though

Great colour, love the track through the middle. I think we call this stuff Golden Canola here in Oz - it looks very similar. Here it's used as an oil seed and hence as the base for margarine and cooking oils.
