Blue & yellow go so well together
Great skies & miles of rape-seed in Cambridgeshire yesterday.
Not so much of it planted in Holland.
I went through the "Bulb-district" this morning (Lisse, Katwijk, noordwijkerhout) and all the rows and fields of tulips have been "topped" already so no point in heading over there this weekend.
When the tulips are in full bloom they go over them with a huge lawn mower-like thing and hack off all the flower-heads (it's all about cultivating the bulbs, not the blooms), most distressing sight, if you see what they cost for a bunch in the shops!

Lovely photo but I can just smell that horrible rape seed smell. We have quite a lot of rape seed round here. Doesn't look right at all in what is supposed to be a rolling green pastoral Vale. And that smell...
