A Meadow of Flowers


"In a meadow full of flowers, you cannot walk through and breathe those smells and see all those colors and remain angry. We have to support the beauty, the poetry, of life." Jonas Mekas


My local council have seeded several small areas with wild flowers. They are to encourage local insect and plant diversity. Aren't they beautiful? There are meant to be seven places, though so far I have only found three, but am on the look out for the others.

  5. Just beautiful! I love wildflowers in the fields. Your photos are lovely. How wonderful that your city council purposely create this meadow of wild flowers and not just leave it as grassland.
