Photo of the Month: July 2013

Telegraph Road
Telegraph Road, Culross, Fife



1st July 2013, Gallows Loan, above Culross
 
I have been visiting this field above Culross since the Spring when the crop was merely a few inches high.  Each visit sees new growth and a change in colour.  My last visit was 3-weeks ago.  Now it is thigh deep, the sun has ripened the ears and I expect it will soon be harvested.  With the sun setting at about 10pm there is luminosity in the sky for a long time afterwards.  I took this image 25 minutes after sunset in the gloaming light.  The trees were all silhouettes against the sky whilst the tram lines in the crop helped create a sense of depth with their dark shadows.
