[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
A lot of red poppies are photographed these days, in this picture I want to offer you a different colour as the fields of poppy blossom all around.

I think that not in all countries is common to crop poppy, but poppy is used as a traditional filling for Czech cakes and stuffed cakes, so traditional that even appear in the one of the most famous Czech fairy tales about Lazy Honza (John). Poppy cakes are for us something like pizza for Italians.

Hi Romana,
I am so used to see red poppies that your white poppies are a nice surprise to me.
I like the luminosity and the palette of soft colours in your composition.
Regards,
Maria

Hello Romana,
A very good POV for these different poppies (never seen poppies of this colour before).
Beautiful against the blue sky.

Hello, Romana.

What a beautiful summery picture!

So fresh and clear and sharp with wonderful colours!

An excellent shot, perfectly composed!

Beautiful!

Best Wishes,

John.

Hi Romana,
I like you very low pov, the upward and vertical composition made an stunning effect on the flower where it seems to stand strong and tall amongst the others. dramatic one.

Hi Romana,
You did well to choose a low viewpoint here to isolate the single flower against the sky while it is echoed by the other flowers and seed heads.
Very nice summer light and atmosphere.
John

excellent shot, Romana, I like a lot how the low point of view isolates the poopy against the blue sky. the light is just right to show how delicate the petals of the flower are, and colours are crips and clean. very nice work, my compliments.

Kristine

p.s. bagels and pastries with poppy seeds are very popular in Latvia too, you just have to remember to brushu your teeth after eating them :D

Bonjour Romana,
Fantastic POV to discover these poppies so delicate. I like the shape of the flower that you chose to photograph which harmonizes perfectly with clouds.
A photo full of poetry.
Bravo

Bonjour,
belle photo de ce champ de coquelicot je dirais,
mais des blancs,
je ne connaissait pas.
Belle prise.

Amitiés Thomas

Hello Romana,

I used to have pink and purple poppies in my garden as well as the red, yellow and orange! They are beautiful but do not last long enough!

I love your low pov which gives good interest and detail to the front flowers. Good sense of perspective.

Kind regards,
Bev :-)

Fine composition with wonderful flowers, dear Romana !
Great POV and and tones
Thanks for sharing my friend
Aires

Hi Romana,
really a nice shot, the POV is great, the flowers are really reaching for the sky, which is very pleasant, I really like these kind of shots, these low POVs are always interesting! You composed this one very nice, a very good one!

Take care
Mark

Hello Romana
Je n'avais jamais vu de coquelicot blanc, c'est assez surprenant. Le POV choisi est vraiment superbe et sans éléments de référence, on se croirait dans une drôle de forêt!!
De très bonnes couleurs avec de bons contrastes.
très belle photo!!
Amicalement
Hervé

Hi Romana, I very much like the pov you have chosen for this one. It produces a very interesting and different shot. Beautiful blue sky to work with too. Chris

Hi Romana
Good composition! Very nice colors and lights!

Hi Romana,
Superb POV for those nice poppies.
These flowers are very frequent over there and much more acceptable than those in Afghanistan.
Cheers
Marc
