tuesday and some purple


Happy Tuesday my friends. I had another lovely weekend camping. And I made a visit to the magical purple field again. This time the light was better, and it was just as pretty as I remembered.



Although, I only had time to take a few quick shots, as it was being mowed, literally as I was shooting away. Now all the beautiful purple flowers are gone. I'm so glad I had a chance to see it before that happened.


Hope you have a great week

Hi Maureen, These are lovely. Lucky you arrived in time to get a few shots.

Ashley Sisk said...

I'm inspired - I want to take my vintage cameras out right now!

Anna said...

Maureen, beautiful captures!!! This certainly proves the point - shoot when you have the chance. I remind myself of that more and more these days, as I've often been disappointed coming back to photograph something that looked like good material, only to find..... Well, nothing stays the same, does it?
Happy week to you too!

I hate when they mow down flowers. At least you got to see them one last time. And so do we! These are beautiful shots.
