mutley 4,498 Posted May 1, 2017 Report Share Posted May 1, 2017 It's Spring here in the UK and we have fields of bright yellow Rapeseed, which besides playing havoc with peoples hayfever, can look stunning against dark skies or on a cross country flight. So this month, we would like to see a shot from a cross country flight, showing of the colour of the fields. Contest finishes 31st May 2017 - Gool luck! 2 Link to post Share on other sites

mike H 456 Posted May 12, 2017 Report Share Posted May 12, 2017 (edited) That reminds me I must get some more rapeseed oil as my old aircraft needs a new lick of paint. Edited May 12, 2017 by mike H 1 Link to post Share on other sites
Captain Coffee 2,030 Posted May 12, 2017 Report Share Posted May 12, 2017 (edited) Regrettably it is hard to spot golden colors in the Californian valleys. Rapeseed isn't something PC California would probably be ok with anyhow...ironic as we are rather well known for our signature varietals of YouAskedForIt Juice, the vines for which are greening our valley fields this time of year. But germane to the theme, some of that juice will be Golden colored...well...all of it eventually. Edited May 12, 2017 by Captain Coffee 1 Link to post Share on other sites
