Here’s a new intersection but still on our country drive of 01 January. First up is a gravel road, lined on one side with a long line of our native flax plants and they’re in flower hence the tall stalks. After that are three photos of swirly field patterns. We’re well into summer now and the paddocks had been ‘topped’ i.e. trimming off the stemmy stuff. This had created amazingly wonderful field patterns for us to admire 🙂
Clutha District, New Zealand. Last photo taken by Nigel.

I like the last also. The flower is appealing as Linda mentioned but I also like how the undulating rows accent the lay of the land. The second is similar but the inclusion of the flower gives the last the edge.

I think the lush green grasses and the dandelion flower and buds in the foreground really anchor this scene in summer!

My favorite photo’s the last, with the single flower accenting the foreground.

That single dandelion really takes ownership of the space!
