Poppies grow beautifully among the wheat in the farm fields just outside of our gates. I am wondering if the farmer puts them there to keep the bugs away from his wheat crop... assuming that poppies ward off bugs, of course. No matter what the reasons are, it's wonderful to see the beautiful and bright warm reds against the cool blues in the landscape. Misty Jura mountains in the background....

Thank you, Jon, for the inspiring photography.
