Soon to happen again.
Can you smell the spring yet? Probably not, it is still time. But its coming... soon fields will fill up with flowers and bugs and the red poppies on their skinny and long stems will swing again on the warm breeze.
Sounds lovely, doesn't?
These were shot on a countryside road in Poland some other spring. Hundreds of them on booth sides.
I used Helios 40-2 lens trying to catch the swirly bokeh and on some photos it shows more, others less. I blame the light and lack of experience. They still turned out quite dreamy and calm which is what I like about the less-realistic photos (at least that's what I call them. It is not how it looks like after all).

Some were covered in tiny black aphids 👇
As a bonus little Veronica flowers that were growing all around. Since they are not very tall they get tangled with grasses and other weeds. Putting the camera at their level made it all look like a tunnel filled with blue flowers.
Funny thing about these - they hate to be picked. I have tried a few times to include them in some bouquet as a kid and hey just rop their flowers soon after. Same as poppies actually.
A good trick to be safe from picking ;)
Shot with Sony a7R + Helios 40-2mm lens

Aww... It's fascinating what you do with "Helios"!... Each photo is an image poetry where it seems to be able to hear the wind and smell the flowers... Fascinating!... BRAVO!
Thanks for sharing @ewkaw friend!!!
It is an awesome lens. You jus can't do anything different :D
Thank you!

Gorgeous captures of such fragile flowers! I'm already dreaming of summer... Thank you!
Thank you! I could skip summer. A long spring an then fall would suits me just fine :)
Unfortunately, we may be "forced" to skip summer.
My favourite season… spring… I can’t wait to see it happen and change in our new country 🥰😎
Beautiful captures @ewkaw the poppies are stunning. So soft… beautiful!
Have a great evening 👋🏻
I like too.... just don't like that summer comes right after.. yuk!
Thank you :)
Nope… luckily we moved to another country, far away from Spanish summers. It will be mush milder now. We will have to find out 🤓
Have a great week further @ewkaw 👋🏻
You are welcome.
Beautiful photography
Thank you!
I was tidying up some onions today, they seemed to be convinced it's almost spring. 😂
Bad poppies!
Died each time before I reached the vase, since then I'm not picking them anymore.
Looks like tortured. 🙄
Helios looks like a fine art friendly.... 😏
Onions are weirdos... :p Potatoes too.
I stopped trying too. I even thought that if I pick buds, they will open and since they are already in a vase they will not drop. Didn't work either.

Ach... łąka :) już niedługo... :)
Jeszcze troszeczkę.
A jak tam zima w PL? :)
We Wrocławiu bez śniegu, ale w górach to chyba najstarsi górale nie pamiętają takiej zimy ;)
W Tatrach wszystkie szlaki zamknięte.
Biedny Wroclaw poszkodowany :p
O górach słyszałam ze pozamykane.
As soon as I opened the post, I knew Helios was guilty!
Ohhh yea... after you know what he can do...
Awesome lens!
Super!
Thanks!
😉
That is wonderful bokeh you have there. Truly a dreamy result. : )

Oh, my goodness am I ready for spring! As I read this, I am sitting listening to the sleet and freezing rain fall outside the window. Our school has been canceled for 3 days.
Beautiful pictures that make me even more excited for spring!
Wow is it really bad?
I heard of some record freezing temps in New Hampshire yesterday. Well.. it is about +16C here :p
I knew it! These shots were taken from a different time, Bhahaha it should still be a Artic Snow field on Poland right now.
Grrrrr, what is the trick to picking poppies safely! How dare you end on a cliff hanger.
Heresy!
Hehe it is! :D
The flowers are no even thinking of growing yet.
You do not pick poppies. Period :)
Ha! If i use my secret pot, I'll be able to scoop the entire plant itself and store it in my very dark closet.
Also summer is closing in, cannot wait for clear skies and sunny days ahead.
Sounds like a fun place :p
At least we have honey and candy flowers.
Life is gud.
i can see the bulbs coming out of the ground in the garden, but still to cold for flowers
My Freesias are about to bloom :)
didn't know they respond to whine .. 🍷, or is it just a bit warmer in your place 😉
Must be the wine...
:)

I love that bokeh effect. Especially in the poppies pics.
Thanks! Yea, it turned out quite nice :)
It feels like spring here, too! Would like a good snowfall, but if not, let's have spring!
Very super pretty flowers. I agree, getting right down on their level provides a really interesting effect.
I would like to get some snow! Not here though...
Thank you :)
Beautiful flowers, I saw this kind of flower for the first time, veronica really caught my eye, especially with the tunnel you created, it is very amazing
Thanks! I thought poppies grow everywhere :D
Unfortunately here there is no such beauty, thank you also for your response and have a nice day always😊
