Been after a decent poppy field for a while now, and have now discovered one!
The sky on Saturday evening wasn't really great for wide shots, so got the long zoom out and concentrated more on details. Quite hard to get sharp as was pretty breezy, but this seems OK.
Loved these 3 backlit poppies, with their backdrop of more poppies behind. I think it's sufficiently different from the usual poppy shots. Has a bit of a 70's flake advert feel to this I think.... maybe!
I have not found any yet, though unlikely to top this shot anyway. One of a few recent very high quality images Martin.....congrats on the well deserved awards :-)

133 votes and counting - not bad eh Martin??
Totally deserved, this is a terrific shot. It's actually what inspired me to go out in search of poppies the other night. Even if I'd had the light though, I'm sure I wouldn't have got anywhere near producing this. Just awesome, nice one.
