Spanish poppies Flowers and Forests The photo of this scene

The photo of this scene was taken by a friend in Naramata of beautiful Mill Bay in Naramata…a place filled with cherished  memories of family and fun

I pack my car with my tent

it's all part of winter in the woods

We so enjoyed our camping spot and awoke to a glorious sunrise

I was surprised how quickly I captured the scene and how it came together with an ease that I had not experienced before and possibly since

Spanish poppies Flowers and Forests The photo of this sceneWhile in Spain in 2018 on one of the daily visits to the local village these poppies all of the sudden made their appearence at the side of the road. The purple poppy especially made me want to pull over for a closer look. I never knew there were such a thing!
