It's been raining a lot here lately, to be honest it feels as if it is the only weather we have this spring, greygreygrey and rain, so when there was a pause in all that heavenly watering this morning, I grabbed my camera to get some shots of all the poppies before they give up hope of better times and just die. I was lucky, it's is pouring down now when I sit here writing these words.... Enjoy the red!
Isn't the grasshopper gorgeous, it certainly strikes the pose
There is a lot of water left here and there
Lots of bees desperately working while they can, they were so busy they didn't care at all if I put the camera lens up their noses
Meraviglioso! It is the same countryside I live in, but through your camera it seems so more beautiful, and fresh, and stunning!
ReplyDeleteÅ, det var lisa för en grå själ!
ReplyDeleteHello Ilva... you have excelled .. absolutely stunning, the one with the Poppy and raindrops is a fav of mine :)
ReplyDelete<span>Gorgeous pictures! Thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteCheers,

Beautiful images. The grasshopper stole my heart. Poppies are definitely one of more photogenic flowers, be it rain or shine. I love the tear drops on them in your pictures, and the wrinkled, paper-like texture of the petals when they are dry.
ReplyDeleteWe are suffering from the same wet, dreary weather here in the Northeast United States. We may pass right over spring and jump directly into the hot, humid summer months before we know it!!! Thanks for all the colors. Ciao
ReplyDeleteahhhhh ... poppies, like a cardinal, the reds of nature just grab us!! When my mother-in-law had charge of our Michigan cabin we had poppies all over the back yard in spring. Maybe one day I can get them back.
ReplyDeleteYes, Ilva it was THAT ciabatta! Have you found a twisted bread yet?
Cara Ilva,
ReplyDeleteThe rain evokes poetry. Sensuality. Amazing photography, cara! Bacione, Ingrid in Umbria

ReplyDeleteGreat pitures! You are so talented!
ReplyDeleteI was in Italy 2 weeks ago and was very lucky to have nice weather!
At least the rain helped your pictures to become even nicer! ;)
The reds of the poppies and the greens speak of spring, no matter the weather!
ReplyDeleteYou captured the reds beautifully (I find them really hard to do).
May I ask what lens you were using? I have been trying to stick to my 85mm lens, I bought it for macro images, but have come to love it for many other purposes too.
The little pink rose is for you.
May the sun return to Tuscany soon!
Hugs,
Merisi

Åh, blommar de redan hos dig? Det är nog en av de absolut finaste blommorna jag vet! Urfina bilder!
ReplyDeleteWhen I grow up... I want to take pictures just like Ilva!
ReplyDelete;)
I love all the photos.
ReplyDeletePaz
Love the poppies! So pretty.
ReplyDeleteÅåh, underbara, röda, förgängliga vallmoblommor! ... Och den fantastiska gräshopps-posen - un attore vero, sul palco rosso!
ReplyDeleteKarin :)

ReplyDeleteI've been away from a computer for weeks--I'm hiking the Pacific Crest Trail, from Mexico to Canada, through the mountain ranges of California, Oregon, and Washington--but I'm now taking a week's break--and how wonderful it is to see your photos and read your blog again! I love these rainy spring images--and poppies (waterlogged or otherwise), too! Thanks!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful photos..
