Spring Mist

A bit of a mist is rising from this field of newly emerging potatoes.

In winter we long for spring on An Island Walk.

Nice lines
Mary MacADNski: The farmers pride themselves on their furrows.
Lovely red soil and striking pattern, Mary.
Mary MacADNski: Thanks, Graeme. Our red soil is famous for the excellent potatoes it produces.

Very interesting: it must be some sort of temperature variation going on
Mary MacADNski: Probably a cold night retreating into a warm day.
Smashing picture Mary.
Mary MacADNski: Thanks, Bill. Thinking of spring.

the farmer had been drinking, seeing his lines are not straight at all
Mary MacADNski: Oh, oh.
Nice contours and colour Mary. it is eyecatching !!!
Mary MacADNski: Yes. I had a season compressed into a few shots a couple of years ago.
Those potato ridges do make a lovely pattern, Mary.
Mary MacADNski: Yes, and the hills will be made higher yet.

Another season already! The soil looks good for potatoes.
Mary MacADNski: We have to wait a bit for this but yes, it is very good soil for potatoes.
The ploughed fields where you live always look better than the ones round my way Mary.
Mary MacADNski: Potatoes require high hills like this, and they are pretty.
The little potato seedlings look very fragile sitting atop the furrows, Mary. Hard to imagine that in a short while they will have produced spuds mature enough to be served for dinner. Another great capture!
Mary MacADNski: Yes, they grow fast once they start.
Such a rich looking soil Mary, great patterns and the must adds that little extra smile
Mary MacADNski: It was the mist I was trying to capture. It was much prettier in real light.
Super picture..Nicely composed too Mary.
Mary MacADNski: Thanks Ron. It pays to be out early.
I love shots like this. Pure geometry
Mary MacADNski: I throw a few in from time to time.
That's a cracker!
Mary MacADNski: Appreciate that.
Very nice, looks like great soil for potatoes and root crops.
Mary MacADNski: It is excellent for those crops.
These always get me, abstract and good!
Mary MacADNski: I saw that with my eye but in such a different way. Glad to produce even a glimpse.
