Poppies & Corn Marigolds, North Cornwall
| "This headland near Porth Joke is owned
by the National Trust and the farm is managed using traditional
methods which encourage natural flora and fauna to grow. The poppies,
which require disturbance to germinate, and the corn marigolds
flourish here as must have been the case before modern agricultural
practices eliminated scenes such as these. A cold sea mist rolled
in just after sunrise (very early at this time of year !) and lasted
just long enough for a series of unusual but successful images
before the Summer sun burnt it off." |
