Canola country

July 18, 2011 by Barb 28 Comments

Our canola fields are something to behold when they are all in bloom. Right now the countryside is a patchwork of bright greens and yellows. Throw in a beautiful blue sky and some sunbeams and it’s positively magical. Ahhh and the smell! wish I could bottle it and bring it home . . .

    Love that yellow.
    I always mourn those fields when they are gone: like the sun has gone in.

    You have definitely captured it! Canola is grown in this part of the country, although I don’t see as many yellow fields as I once did. Such a vibrant color!

    What a gorgeous photograph this is Barb!
    The yellow seems to go on and on for miles. How lucky you are to have been able to photograph this.

    Thank you so much for sharing this today at The Creative Exchange.

    Have a great day!

    Lovely composition – the trees in the foreground just make the canola stand out all the more.

    That is so gorgeous and I love it. It is so full filling to see that in real life, isn’t it:)

    Is refreshing to see a field that is filled with something other than corn or soybeans. :) Lovely photo!

    What an impressive view! I’d want to bottle that bit of yellow, too and then open it up come January :)
