Fields of weed.

in #nature5 years ago

One summer day in the north.

No farmers left where I live. All the old grasslands grow dense with weeds and forest. The same happens in large parts of Norway. Every year, hundreds of farms are closed down due to poor profitability.

Greetings @karja,

Such lovely photographs of these former farm lands......thank you for bringing them to Steemit.

Cheers!

Wishing you and your family all the best. ^__^

Lovely pictures

Good documentary shooting, gives strong feeling of how the abandonment feels to you. Well done.

Thanks so much @scotgillespie for pleasant comment.

Beautiful pictures Jan!
Your place is paradise!
I've seen fields of pink in BE but that's on the way to France and just drivin passed through it. Up close is very different!
They call them weed but really they're the earth's ornaments!

Nice pictures, but where the farmers gone? We need food

It is very nice to see such a delight for the eyes @karja, I also missed going into the fields and picking up rice stalks.

Nice place!

Such beautiful pictures! It's very sad that the farms are closing, but the weeds make for a lovely photo. The sunset photo at the end is really stunning.

Flotte bilder!
