The fields on the way to Balchik. Bulgaria June 22

grindle in #hive-163772 • 2 years ago

It got to the stage where I just had to shout "Stop the bus!".

We had been driving for an hour or so on the way to Balchik, passing through endless fields of colour.

"Is something wrong?" asked our leader.

"No nothing wrong, I just want to get some snaps of these fields"

The bus was stopped
Everyone piled off
A few thanked me and said things like "we wanted to ask but didn't like to"
There are sheep, there are sheeple.

SNAPS
AND
FACTS

Ukraine is the world's largest Sunflower producer
Bulgaria is seventh.
Sunflowers were introduced to Europe from N America in the 16th C.
They are an annual plant

I grow sunflowers in my garden at home.

Bulgaria is the world's No1 producer of lavender oil
France is second
Lavender is a common plant from Europe India and the middle east
They are a perennial plant

I have lavender plants growing in my garden

Pollinators, the guardians of our planet. Without whom the human race is fucked.

Now, tell me, are you glad I stopped the bus?

Seeing those fields full of sunflowers reminds me of the summer season here in Romania where we have a lot of fields with sunflowers (even the name is predestined), and yes, we also have lavender fields, but there are a few businesses here in western Romania where these lavender fields have been turned into real studios for photo shoots.

Exquisite captures!

How could anybody drive past such visual ecstasy and NOT STOP! lolz! I suppose the driver might be excused for having done the route often, but even still! Does a sight like that ever really get old? unlikely!

Hey @galenkp ... I found your lavender fields lolz!

Serendipitous :)

My name is Eliza-Anne and my one friend calls me Lizzy the ladybird, lolz! Sooo for that reason, this one is my favorite!

MY friends nicknames for me excluded though, I think they are all spectacular and THIS one REALLY captivates me!

What is that song... you know the one... oh no, that is "strawberry fields forever", close enough I guess :D

I love both of those types of fields. I miss that about Europe. We don't really have either of them in Canada. I could take pictures of corn. That's about it. Lol
