During a recent bike ride, the sky was so gorgeous I had to bring my camera with me. These are a few I took.

I love those open spaces. Great shots. My favorite is the second one. Put one solitary flower in the middle of a sea of grass and highlight it with an interesting sky and I am sold! Great bike ride and I'm glad I got to go along!

Fantastic post Teedlepeep! I really like the 2nd and the last one. although they are all great!
The lone flower in the field just draws me in and the the perspective you've created with the framing in the last one is just Spectacular!!
Thanks for Sharing these
Michael.

Wha a lovely place to go for a bike ride and you show the countryside so nicely. I love the solitary flower in the field. But all of them are lovely. It pays to carry your camera. Thanks for sharing your bike ride Sue.

Dave.

Sue, did you know I have a grass collection? Did you know I'm daft about photos featuring grass from any angle? Given that piece of information, you must know, then, that I love every photo you found on your bike trip. Actually, and I don't really like to do this, but let me say that another way. I LOVE these photos. Yea! A fellow grass fan!

Glad you came along also. Next time you wanna help pull me up those hills I have been eyeing that field for weeks now. Had to wait for a good sky.

Thanks Michael.... I am partial to that last one also. Reminds me of "the shire" (or what I would envision it to look like)

Thank You! It was a great night, which are getting rare around here. This summer has been replaced by rain, rain and more rain.
