This is the hamlet where I live. On either side a field separates us from woodland. The fields have been tilled and sown for the new season and are a rich colour in the early evening sunlight. The moon has just slipped behind the low cloud.
It's a lovely sky for Skywatch Friday.
We've had no rainfall for weeks now and the ground is dry.
You could even describe it as parched!
In the woods the bluebells will soon be over.
Bracken is pushing up through the woodland floor, competing for the ground occupied by the bluebells.
I'm enjoying this glorious colour while I can.
We don't have bluebells here and thank you for sharing their glorious showing.
ReplyDeleteThey will soon be gone!
DeleteWe don't have that many wild bluebells where I live, either. I hope you get much needed rain(just enough; not too much) soon. Alana ramblinwitham.blogspot.com
ReplyDeleteRain today, Bookworm, the water butts are full, this gardener is happy.
DeleteWhat a beautiful area where you live! I like the angled light.
ReplyDeleteThis was a rare sunny day and it does transform everything.
DeleteWow, that is really dry! I do hope the farmers get some relief soon. The woods, on the other hand, look fabulous with the colors that have sprung up!
ReplyDeletePretty unusual for Blighty, I hope it doesn't mean that we shall have rain throughout the summer!
DeleteThe woods are spectacular for this short while.
Love to see big and beautiful skies over open countryside like this. And the woodlands are a delightful green.
ReplyDeleteI wanted to photograph the moon, but it is barely visible in my shot and very quickly went behind the cloud. It's lovely to have the contrast of fields and woodland.
DeleteBeautiful pictures. I love the light of early evening as the sun is beginning to set. We've had a ridiculous amount of rain here, I think some would be happy to send their rain your way! -Jenn
ReplyDeleteI've read that nature photographers are always out either in the very early morning or just before dusk to get the best light effects. On this occasion I was just lucky! Some rain today, much needed, but so far not too much!
