Nothing much happens around our little village, but this week we were surprised to find that the main paved road to the nearest town was suddenly blocked off. We were directed to a detour that took us along gravel roads through the countryside. On my way back along this route I noticed a sea of blue that I had missed on my way out.
So today, on my way home from doing another kitchen shoot, I had to stop, thrash my way through the vines bordering the field, and make a few shots (the mosquitoes I disturbed made sure I only stayed for a few shots !).
Sit back for a few minutes, turn on the music (link below), and drift off into the wild blue yonder ...
[oh, my curiosity about the detour was piqued so I drove past the 'road closed' sign for about a mile and came upon the reason for the closure - a bridge over this creek is being replaced - the construction crew said it would take 2 months]
by the way, this flower is known as Viper's Bugloss
