A spring shot for my DA watchers
A beautiful buttercups field just south of Gedera, Israel.
They allowed children and families to run in the fields and pick up buttercups for 20 shekels per person (about 4US$). It was fun watching the small kids get lost in the forest of colorful buttercups.

Well I dont really fav photos which took many favs from others, lets say I like to give my favs to people with not so many favs and watches ( not that I have limit on faving, maybe its a personal policy which doesn't make any sense) ..

BUT, I couldn't resist faving this one! So many colors.. omg I really loved this one!

I didnt expect you to answer to my comment (not that you would snob me, its just you have so many comments you cant (or I wouldnt) answer to all of them! )

This shot is just so colorful and alive that you can't help but look at it.

The use of DOF really gives a sense of size to the field of flowers, and the focus is spot on the main subject.

This is just an all around great shot that speaks well to the quality of work you produce.

Well done!
