  16. How beautiful, Alisa. This reminds me of the Wildflower Farm in Fredericksburg TX.
    I love ranunculas so much. It would be thrilling to see fields of them.
    Thanks so much for sharing the photos.

  17. What beautiful and colorful shots! I've never been to a place like this and can only imagine how inspiring and gorgeous it must be in person - though your photos do a great job of capturing it all too! Thanks for sharing!

    love how you caught those honeybees. It's funny too about how flowers are agricultural products. Never thought about it that way, but the big John Deere tractor brings the concept sharply into focus. Then the palm trees in the background, that's a contrast too. Just love the whole composition.

  19. Beautiful! When I lived in Texas, there was a nursery that had flower fields like this-from a distance, you could see solid blocks of color. It was so beautiful!

  26. Fields like this keep amazing me and make my heart jump. Even as a Dutch girl I will never get tired of them. Breathtaking. I specifically like the first pictures perspective by the way.

  29. Just stunning ... Here, it's cold and wet and grey and I'm off to find another jumper. But this has lifted my spirits!

  30. Are you in the flower fields in Carlsbad, California? The ranuculas can be seen from the freeway in ribbons of bright colors.

  31. Not too far away from me, in that little country south of the 49th, is a place called LaConnor, in Washington State, that has exquisite acres of fields of tulips, and, in celebration, a Tulip Festival in the area (all of which is beautiful, BTW)
    This set of images rivals the tulip fields-exquisite!

  32. I loved the photos of the little honeybee with her stuffed pollen baskets. I get my first package of bees on Wednesday! I'll finally be able to call myself a beekeeper!

  33. These photos are divine! At first they didn't seem real...they couldn't be real...I didn't know such beauty could exist. I don't want to be jealous but I kinda am. :o)

  35. First time I comment here. Been reading your blog for almost two years now. I am planning on moving to SD in the next year or two. Your previous post confirmed my decision, but this one seals the deal!
    I've been here before and it still absolutely gorgeous! Love all the shots. This is a beautiful place to have a peaceful walk and enjoy all these pretty flowers.
