Description
A chance capture. Driving by in the car and saw the poppies and the gathering clouds and saw possibilities. Stopped and took a dozen or so shots and drove off again. Quick tweek in PS to darken the sky and increase the contrast on the poppies.Shot location: [link]

I went away a very happy bunny indeed.
Not so happy when I got back with over 5 thousand images and 2.5 thousand messages to plough through.

such a great piece. the dark clouds especially add to the meaning of a red poppy,much less a field of them

SnapperRod In reply to backtothefuturegirl [2010-11-26 21:49:04 +0000 UTC]
Taken just outside Dunfermline in Scotland. I have just added a shot location map to the image so you can now see where it was taken from.
Cheers for that comment as well
