Some early summer impression from my homeland. Agriculture forms the landscape around. Typical is rape seed that gives a dominant yellow to the land. It corresponds perfect with the blue sky and - yellow mixed with blue - green grass and trees.

According to Wikipedia the name comes from the Latin Rapa for Turnip.
It went something like this, if memory serves me right
the details derail themselves from reality
for I only recall such things upon waking
as if still entranced by deepest sleepbeats
sounded-out by the glint of morning breaking
dreams are often the energy mix for reality's song
routine the old discarded 7" now a hot auction piece
if only I could remember it's damned name
all would be well with the world, wouldn't it?
life could be lived better, and where I belong remains the same??
the compromise between a dream and it's wide-awakeness
exhilarates beyond consciousness
it's agreement disentangles the life we perceive,
exhumes ghosts of our forgotten worlds,
re-examines the realms of all we've come to believe
give us the Earth and you bring the fire
show us life and you will feel the pain of death
meet the people and you will encounter war
take my hand you will touch but a pulse of my world
for all this how much do we want it anymore
palliation is the now the sum of all human parts
for every time we look up, we must now hold our heads and beg
those that have it all grow decadent and stoop in their greed
nothing left to revere for they worship the god of inestimable dishonesty
these ill-gotten gains make the 'rains' that fail so many mouths to feed
click here to continue, if your mouse will, the cats curiosity may kill -
those inhibitions of yore, for going against the modern grain
there is so much unnatural pain in the World, can't you see!!
where medicines fail is a failing in human recognition
we as a species are becoming untreatable where truth can no longer be
how we desert nature's post, and shoot at dawn the hero who saves us
in our sleep we see, in our subconscious mind we know
the waking hour still has lingering belief,
but the wide-awake human is a devilish miser
one destined for nothing but a life of horror and grief
unless...unless...if time allows, if the Soul can still arouse
a permit for the senses, a visa for the faith of cultural embrace
a bureaucratic bonfire at which we warm torn hearts at the hands of administrative nightmares
the ashes of which will document recycled political ways of reforming our madness
for the lifetime of a heart affords a love of which there is no-one it spares
weapons never suited the people who possess them
forever lost in translation waving such arms like cash for honours
the greatest missile ever fired was the one spoken to betray our spirit
it's corrupting influence still scars the land with each footstep taken
it's now a standard pretext for the 'conversion' of successive rôles we inherit
now, if I remember clearly, my dream told me I could live differently
it went, something like this...if the future serves me right
that imagination is an attempt to offer such errors a way out
the deeper the dream the wider the imaginative escape path
for the dream is certain of one thing, that in reality our existence is in doubt.

Leicester-shire, sunshine and rape fields and a few clouds, as you can see the rape flowers are nearly finished and harvesting the seeds will soon commence.
The usual non HDR treatment.
Thank you for visits, faves and kind words.

Die Bild-Idee von einem Rapsfeld im Sonnenuntergang hatte ich schon lange im Kopf und so ganz kurz hat sogar mal das Wetter gepasst. Mit dem Bike haben wir das Züri Unterland nach dem perfekten Rapsfeld abgesucht, eines das perfekt in Richtung Westen liegt. In der Anflugschneise vom Flughafen Zürich wurden wir fündig. Kaum zu glauben das wenige Meter hinter uns die grossen Vögel starten und landen. Eigentlich mag ich Raps nicht schmecken.. aber die gelben Felder im Frühling sind doch immer ein Hingucker :-)
The image idea of a rape field in the sunset I had long in the head and so very briefly even times the weather fit. With the bike we searched the Züri Unterland for the perfect rape field, one which is perfectly in the west direction. In the approach flight from the airport Zurich we found. It's hard to believe that the big birds start and land a few meters behind us. Actually, I do not like rapeseed .. but the yellow fields in the spring are always an eye-catcher :-)
Late in posting this view of a field of rape. Taken after rain around 0930 hrs when blue sky arrived.
On the Ridgeway an old walk near Avebury where many of the clumps of beech trees are over ancient burial mounds.

During my recent to NE Georgia, the last stop of our five waterfall day was Raper Creek Falls. The water was flowing pretty well. To get a frontal view, you had to get into the stream, which was a bit high. We didn't have our water boots and didn't feel like having soaked feet for our 2.5 hr ride home. Wimps, I know.
This waterfall can be a bit challenging to find the first time but there is a small pullout large enough for two cars. The hike is very short, maybe a tenth of a mile, if that. But the last part is steep and always seems to be very muddy. Be careful at the bottom as it's very slippery and muddy as well. During my next visit this fall I'll have to remember my water boots.
Thanks for viewing my photos. Comments are always welcome.

A rape seed field in April with rain approaching. I gambled on attaching an ND grad filter in time before the rain arrived.

In Berlin rape blossom is already over. Luckily on Rügen island there are still fresh yellow rape fields.
