Ballon Poppy Field.

    Travelling home from Carlow a few weeks back I was stunned to see a red field just outside Ballon.
    A quick uturn found me standing on a small stepladder waiting for the clouds to part.
    This was the best I could do.
    I passed a few days later and they were gone.

    Yes, a very nice summer image. The colours really make this image, well done for spotting the field. Handy having a step ladder in the car too.

    Hi Dave,

    Many thanks for your much appreciated comments.

    I am using a van at the moment so having a ladder on board is a little easier than when using a car. :)
    It does come in very handy when a little height gives a better viewpoint.

    All the best,

    John.

    Hi jodal1975,

    Welcome back to PI and many thanks for you lovely comments.
    Most encouraging.

    I didn’t use a polariser as I don’t have one to fit my 10-22.
    I do however use PSE8 to help me reproduce, as best I can, what I remember seeing.

    All the best,

    John.

    That is a cracking shot. The colours are spot on and the composition perfect. I’d be thinking if there were no clouds at all, it wouldn’t be as good :)
