Fields of Dreams #1 - Flowers burst with color in early summer along the edge of this expansive undulating and ripening wheat field near Pienza, Italy. The field fills with shadows and creates a dreamy hint of gold colosr and movement. Renaissance painters were famous for painting this type of countryside. The crops will be harvested a bit late this year due to an unusual amount of rainfall that occurred during the spring. As the summer breeze moved across and rustled the wheat, there was the slightest whisper of sound and movement. Countryside in the Val d'Orcia region of Tuscany, Italy near Pienza, from the direction of Monticchiello. - June 12, 2013
