I gotta agree with everyone here – beauty and the beast. Another contrast is looking down and looking up. Also the poppy is more round and the tower is pretty much all angles.
These twoe pictures offer a lot of different perspectives.
That certainly is a big contrast. Are the California poppies blooming now? I know a place on our island where some California poppies were planted, but I have not seen them recently.
hey 🙂
thanks a lot for visiting my blog and leaving a comment! Although I couldn't update my blog for a longer time I was really glad to get at least some attention 😉
I like your WW a lot – it shows that something little can be as important as something huge!

Wow! Those are definitely different from each other 🙂 Happy WW and thanks for stopping by!
We love how the vibrant poppy refuses to be confined by the starkness of the soil.
The engineering of nature and man.
Nice photos- glad to see the sun shining in both!
California Poppies are so pretty and cheerful!
What a contrast! lol. Talk about beauty and the beast.

Great photos! Happy WW.
That is a contrast, yes!!! We had LOTS of the poppies this March here in the desert – but unfortunately we have some of those metal towers too…..

I prefer the flower. Metal structures somehow relates to industrialization and can't appeal to me. I like nature!
These photos were both taken along the same trail in a park just outside San Francisco. Definitely within 1/2 mile of each other.
The poppy flower is gorgeous. The towel is TALL!
Have a good day! 😛

Beautiful Poppy, i like them, that is one tall tower.
Love the yellow flower, it really stands out.
All things big and beautiful
All things small and wonderful…..
In how ever much we love Nature , we wouldn't be blogging without the man made wonders !!
We must respect both 🙂
Poppies are such beautiful flowers. They're such a simple flower with such wonderful color.
