On an autumn day of sunshine & shadow, I had a gorgeous view of the fields of Salisbury plain in Wiltshire, UK, from the vantage point of Old Sarum. As they peacefully graze, sheep add the perfect touch to this pastoral capture of the English countryside.

Please support me on my NatGeo photo contest:
Taken in fields in NE England, near Durham. Pleased with my new lens. Nikon 70-400mm AF VR ED zoom, bought it second hand, a bargain.
Grand Teton National Park
Grand Teton National Park is a United States National Park in northwestern Wyoming. At approximately 310,000 acres (480 sq. mi; 130,000 ha; 1,300 km2), the park includes the major peaks of the 40-mile-long (64 km) Teton Range as well as most of the northern sections of the valley known as Jackson Hole.
It is only 10 miles (16 km) south of Yellowstone National Park, to which it is connected by the National Park Service-managed John D. Rockefeller, Jr. Memorial Parkway.
Along with surrounding National Forests, these three protected areas constitute the almost 18,000,000-acre (7,300,000 ha) Greater Yellowstone Ecosystem, one of the largest intact mid-latitude temperate ecosystems in the world.
Human history of the Grand Teton region dates back at least 11,000 years, when the first nomadic hunter-gatherer Paleo-Indians began migrating into the region during warmer months pursuing food and supplies. In the early 19th century, the first White explorers encountered the eastern Shoshone natives. Between 1810 and 1840, the region attracted fur trading companies that vied for control of the lucrative beaver pelt trade. U.S. Government expeditions to the region commenced in the mid-19th century as an offshoot of exploration in Yellowstone, with the first permanent white settlers in Jackson Hole arriving in the 1880s.

"Rapeseed", also known as rape, oilseed rape, rapa, rappi, rapaseed, is a bright-yellow flowering member of the family Brassicaceae, consumed in China and Southern Africa as a vegetable. The name derives from the Latin for turnip, rāpa or rāpum, and is first recorded in English at the end of the 14th century. Wikipedia. This particular field was in Kent somewhere. I couldn't resist taking a photo of this with the sky so blue with those lovely plump fluffy clouds. Looks like summer has arrived, for a while anyway.
