Photographer's Note
red carpet
A Poppy is a flowering plant in the subfamily Papaveroideae of the family Papaveraceae. Poppies are herbaceous plants, often grown for their colourful flowers. One species of poppy, Papaver somniferum produces edible seeds, and is also the source of the crude drug opium which contains powerful medicinal alkaloids such as morphine and has been used since ancient times as analgesic and narcotic medicinal and recreational drugs. Following the trench warfare which took place in the poppy fields of Flanders, during the 1st World War, red poppies have become a symbol of remembrance of soldiers who have died during wartime.

Hello Costantino,
This is a beautifully bright photo. The red against the green, and some yellow dots, makes this possibly the most colourful and eye-catching photo of the day. I like that you cropped it so tightly to focus entirely on the flowers and the trees. It was a good decision to disregard the hills in the background and the sky.
Best regards,
Gert

Hello Costantino,
A great photo of these bright red poppies, caught in a wonderful bright sunlight. They stand out really well from the green surroundings, well captured with good clarity.

Hello Dear Costantino,
Poppies are some of the most attractive, wild flowers and what a display they make when seen en masse. Your description of 'red carpet' is very apt!
It's a well composed photograph, very uplifting at a time when there is a deep sadness in the world.
Keep safe,
Bev :-)

Hi Costantino
Small red carpet against lush green produces so much more satisfying result in early spring. A simple capture of the day, well done

Hello dear, Costantino.
Wonderful those spring fields, with such profusion of poppy flowers in the foreground, then the fruit trees and those hills that we glimpse in the background.
A magnificent range of colors, in some tones, very attractive.
Very well done. I love.
Have a great day.
Very best regards.
Luis.

Geia sou Costantino You show a very attractive picture of resurrected apple trees and flowers of April that are judiciously arranged on two rows. This setup constitutes a neat photographic arrangement and is a pleasure for the eyes!

Hi Costantino.
A lovely spring photograph, where the nature is abundant and ready for a new life. Poppy flowers are part of my childhood memories, beautiful and fragile plant gently moved by the wind.
Take good care, TFS!!!

Dear friend, spring came and the poppies are blossoming. They add red hues in the countryside, they go well with the green fruit trees in the bg. Fine colors, good sharpness, interesting photo note, regards.
