At last week's "made in Germany" Elizabeth wrote that one of her most enduring memories of Germany is of "the beautiful cornfields with poppies and cornflowers blooming". Oh, I can so relate to this. Since June is a month when poppies and cornflowers are at their peak in some areas, I have a photo of a typical cornfield here - again in Mecklenburg-Vorpommern, the same area as last week's photo of an abandoned building.
Quite a difference, don't you think?
Do you have something German to share? A special memory, story, book, food, photo? Leave your URL in the comments and we come and visit.

Sadly, I don't have anything related to Germany to share today. I wish I did!
Beautiful poppy field. Just lovely. :)
Beautiful! We don't really get poppies that color around here, I don't think.

Gorgeous, Carola. Wonderful little bits of blue between the glorious red poppies.

PS please feel free to email for any help or chat about the TIC TOCCs. If you get stuck - could it be that you're worrying too much about the outcome. Anything goes even if the results end up unrelated to the prompt. If you've spent some time creating please do share or even just comment about ideas you had. Maybe you may have a photo that fits the theme, or just have a couple of lines written. Truly it doesn't matter. In a timed exercise it is all about the fun of the challenge, creating & stretching the imagination.

Oh my goodness... look at those poppies!!!! I think I know where my old slides are. Maybe one of these days....
this should be a great big oversized picture in my lounge. :)

What a great photo...yes, an amazing contrast with the other photo. I have always loved poppies, they are just so delicate and elegant!
Digging through our photo archives - I found some more pics from Germany!
I've posted several taken in Rothenburg, Germany - ck them out at: http://www.silverlinings4me.blogspot.com/

found something to share... not as pretty as your poppies! but some photos from Rothenburg. Feel free to stop by & take a peek... thanks for getting my travel spark lit (even if only through my journals & books)...
Oh... gorgeous, gorgeous, gorgeous! I hope to someday see and photograph a field of poppies like this... :)
