{63/365}
I'm trying to catch up on my 365....I didn't post anything yesterday (just too busy!), so this is for yesterday and I'll post another one later today.
I took this at Quail Gardens, a lovely botanical garden in my neighborhood. I was so thrilled to see their lavender was blooming...such a pretty sight!
All the fields around us yellow with Rape flowers.
This was taken through a dirty windscreen, but just wanted to capture the yellow. ( I wasn't driving!!)
You know those kinds movies right? You are lazying around on a Saturday or Sunday, you flip the channels, you see THAT movie, the movie that you'll now start watching, no matter how long it's been on, and you get sucked in each and every time.
Field of Dreams is one of those for me. There are so many cool moments in the film that build off each other, it's easy to get pulled right into the plot. Plus, unless you are a brick-wall-of-emotions, it kinds of gets you choked up right?
"Hey dad...you wanna have a catch?"
Oh man, gets to me every time :)
So it's another Movie Title Wednesday on the MO blog and this is a picture snapped back in Ontario, Canada last December. I think I processed this once, back then, and didn't like it, so I forgot about it. But my skills with doing HDR have drastically improved since then and this second go-round was much more fun. It's hard to dislike the gorgeous light coming from the just rising sun that is behind me. The field is made up of dead, harvested corn stalks, which is what made me think of this movie in the first place. The water in the field, if I remember correctly, was partially ice.
The sky was okay in the shot, but a smidge boring for this weather nut who likes high drama, so I mixed in a texture I shot in Bruges, Belgium a few months back. Good tip for you travelers: If you love textures, try to pull your eyes away from the wide angle shots of the city or town you are in, and look closer at the cobblestone, or doors or windows...and find yourself a "memento" that you can take back and use with other photographs. While it's all done digitally, there was something very cool to me with combining a photograph of a barn in Ontario with a wood texture from Bruges.
I took this photo yesterday while on my morning walk.
Thank you to SkeletalMess and Lenoirr for the textures.
Iowa Interstate 516 and 513 bring the CBBI train across the frozen fields of Walcott, IA, on 3-1-15. It's always cool to see the double stacks along with the manifest freight on these trains!
You'll remember me when the west wind moves
Upon the fields of barley
You'll forget the sun in his jealous sky
As we walk in the fields of gold.
In the Woodford Valley near Salisbury is a very nice pub and eatery called the Wheatsheaf. The lyrics above are painted on the walls of the beer garden.
This shot was taken not far from where the Author of that famous song lives, and I wonder if the many fields of gold on the Salisbury Plains inspired the lyrics.

Just outside of Hood River - I found this field where there were hundreds of little clumps of balsamroot. The wind was blowing so strongly that it took many shots to finally get a sharp shot. I did add some post production blur and other tricks to make this softer that the normal shot. Guess I was feeling artistic.....
:-D
Somewhere around Chappell Hill, Texas. Many of the Bluebonnet fields are going to seed. We still managed to see quite a few bluebonnets and other pretty wildflowers:)
A hundred and seventy years ago, 200 Hunter invaders sought refuge in this windmill from British and Canadian forces in a four day siege.
In the end, as many as 50 were left behind in a common grave, 18 were executed, 60 sent to the British penal colony in Australia, 40 were acquitted and 86 were pardoned.
Their counsel was a young Kingston lawyer, Sir John A. MacDonald .... soon to be the first Canadian Prime Minister.
Some thirty years later that windmill was converted to a lighthouse.

In this light painting photo, an old tractor, claw foot tub and barn sit in a field with many memories of an old farm. Photo taken on an abandoned farm in Southern Ontario. Lighting inside the tractor and barn was accomplished using portable LED lighting sources.
We celebrate mother's day next Sunday. These are for my mum.
Thank you rosey sugar for the inspiration!
Back again after an exciting trip to the Normandie.
But this is a scene you will find many places in the country side in Denmark right now.

Sometimes things just work out by chance. We arrived in this flower field just as the moon was setting over the distant mountains and the rising sun began its ascent. The harmony of events, created a wonderfully lit scene across the blooming desert.
This is a mosaic of 4 images, using my 200mm wide field image as the "backbone". M42 is from the 1000D and Megrez 72, Horsehead and Flame from the same kit and a more detailed close up of the horse itself using the 314L+ and Meade 115 trip.
