The Heart of England

Evening Poppies

The trials and tribulations trying to take this Midlands Landscape photograph - you would not believe! Stung by nettles, up to both ankles in dark, smelly peaty pool of water and my remote cable release packed up!
I used Lee Filter ND grads to balance exposure between the evening sky and the glorious Poppy field.
