I usually like to post current – or relatively recent – images on my blog as the blog also serves as a sort of Nature, Weather and Events diary; a record of where I walked and visited and so on.
Today I’ve decided to post an image from last Summer – something bright and warm in order to cheer myself on this dreary, grey February afternoon. Sallyann gave me the idea as her posting today: ‘Something non-grey‘ is also a reaction to the February gloomth we are having in England.
The Lantern Room 
It is bright, cheery and warm!

Many thanks Dreams and Zeros. I took a lot of photos of Barley and Wheat last Summer. It reminds me of the lovely sunny June and July we had!

Sunshine and summer, glorious! Without the dark, there is no light, with grey, it is the twilight world, a chance to see within.

Thank you Scott. I was in real need of some warmth and brightness. I think working in an environment without windows compounds the feeling of drabness.

You’re welcome…and I understand about the no-windows situation…becomes too oppressive after a while.

Stunning use of colour and texture. Beautiful composition. When I first saw the image I thought for a very brief moment your winter had really turned mild quite quickly. 😀

Thank you Elmediat! Yes – I wouldn’t normally post an ‘out of season’ image but my need for warmth and sun was overwhelming!

I like the lines in the image. The curve going to the left and the lines coming from the right. That’s a great combination.

Thank you SaptarshiC. It was interesting how just a few stalks hadn’t ripened along the field edges. I like the contrast of curves and lines too – the young upstart stalk and the older ripe, weather (life)-beaten one!

Thanks very much Saarimner! I took lots of photos of Wheat and Barley last year. This was one of my favourites that I didn’t post back then! Actually – I’m a girl 🙂 I think my gravatar is perhaps a bit masculine!!

Now that’s nice! The contrasts between the green and the yellow-brown – and between the intersection of the angles which the two main elements of the picture make >>> makes this a very good piece of composition! Adrian
