Wonderful images, Tish. Seeing those poppies reminds me of my childhood when my sister and I used to collect poppies from the corn field at the back of our house. We used to pretend that the middle bits were stamps and made patterns on paper, using an ink pad. 🙂
Tish, you don’t know how much I loved seeing these. At our house in Cleveland, we had just a few poppies of this color, but I loved them and took many, many photos of them. None at our rental house, so I’m adopting yours.
I can never get enough of poppies. Each phase of their development has its own interests and charms. I always make sure to collect the seeds and then throw them into the landscape. Let’s see where they’ll come up next year….
The shot with the bees on the poppy is awesome… is that a compiled shot of the same bee or three attacking one all at once? 🙂 Either way, really lovely colors.

What a great idea – they’d make a lovely poppy head print.
Plants with crown

Nice pictures
Thank you, Sanjeet. That’s a lovely image, plants with crowns 🙂

How nice of you to adopt them, Janet 🙂
The first image looks like a time lapse image. Nice shots.
Thank you, Ark.
I’m never tired of poppies , and yours are special!
🙂
Fascinating – very well captured… 🙂
Thanks, Drake.
What a visual feast! Your flower photos are always super-rich in colour and in detail. And you’ve neatly evaded winter.
Yes, that was cunning, wasn’t it 🙂
I’ve heard that they are doing another poppy installation in the north of England somewhere. Yorkshire sculpture park?
Beautiful photos Tish. We also have avoided winter so far, but do need, unfortunately, to spend Nov and Dec back in Vancouver. Brrrrrr

Lots of fleecy layers required 🙂

What fun. Spreading the flowers 🙂

Thanks Alex. It’s a simultaneous 3-bee arrival. It was a chance shot.
