This year had an amazing poppy bloom. EJ wants to go next year. Lets hope for a repeat.

This is an example of what can be done with a fisheye if you are familiar with it and can use leading lines to prevent the fisheye distortion and as part of the composition, as I did with the road edges leading from the lower corners right into the image.

The cloud in the upper left makes me feel a little uneasy - perhaps cause it's so large. But this contrasts with the calmer, centered road with flowers. Excellent use of composition to mask fisheye distortion. Great colors too.

Nice combination of colors between the flowers, the road, and the sky.
