Every year when they start injecting water to the rice field, i get a bit shocked to see that the field becomes the ''sea'' just in one night. i'm surprised to see that they put water in the field almost on the top of the hill. It is interesting to figure out how they get the water.

Saturday we went up to a lavender farm and checked out the lavender festival. More pics to follow (I hope)... Flickr keeps reminding me that my "pro" account ends today...
Anywho, the festival was tons o' fun. I bought dried lavender so I will be able to have some fun with still life images... I just couldn't resist. I also tried lavender lemonade. I must say it was wonderfully refreshing! I didn't know what to expect, but glad I took the "risk!"

Instagram me for more photos!
After my failed attempt at a decent heather shot I lugged the camera gear and tripod up to Charterhouse this evening while out with the dogs...
After a decent walk the dogs were knackered enough to lie at my feet while I shot the sun going down over the beautiful field of gorse in flower!
As always I shot a few 'standard shots' of the lovely sky before sliding in the 10 stop Lee Big Stopper and taking a few LEs - it is always the long exposures I prefer!
Feeling a bit daring I decided to break a few 'rules' for a change :) shooting in portrait, (something I rarely do) and ignoring the rule of thirds as in this instance I decided the sky and the flowering gorse complimented each other equally...

Lee 0.9 soft grad ND filter, Hitech 0.9 hard grad ND filter, (6 stops of light reduction for the the sky, hence the rapid fall off 'vignette' in the sky away from the sun!) and the Big Stopper were used for the shot, edited in LR5 then passed through Nik dfine noise reduction and Nik output sharpener...
Farmland at Lowick, Northumberland. Soon to be a blot on this fine landscape as they have started work on a windfarm.
Having traveled a lot in France as a child, sitting in the car, I was looking around for the first round straw bales. I always loved seeing those large fields with those bales, it gave me a holiday feeling. Still have that feeling now. Those were taken in the fields around Cassel (France)

Michigan weather in the summer is perfect for corn growing - hot and humid. If you are quiet at night, they say you can hear the corn grow.

Another from a foggy morning the day before. The combination of the vivid green grass and distant shrouded trees was amazing to see in person. I hope I was able to reproduce that atmosphere here.
Let me know what you think.
Thanks for viewing!
