I’m not sure whether I am in favour of the proliferation of rape seed fields all over the country, some grown for being made into oil but the majority made into petrol. I am also not in favour of the yellow muck that descends on cars and windows during its flowering time. But I can’t help being fan of the strips of yellow in the rural landscape, of the yellow fields and of the delicate little flowers.

swathes of yellow in the landscape are very beautiful- I also love to see the blue of linseed- but not often seen in this area of Hertfordshire.

I had to look up what blue linseed looks like (flax) and yes that looks lovely, I don’t think I’ve ever seen it here either. More’s the pity.

I know lots of people – my husband included – who aren’t fans at all. It really brings on the hayfever for sufferers. I’m OK though, and agree it can brighten and add accent to a landscape.

I’m a fan of the swathes of yellow as well, really brightens up the countryside & provides a great contrast to the green 😃. Great close-ups, I’ve never gotten that close to see the individual flowers! I think rapeseed fields are also used in crop rotation here, & used to put nutrients back into the soil for then planting cereal crops.
