Matt,

Just curious : when exactly did you take that photo ?

Or better : was it before or after 3 May ?

You see, John McCrae wrote his "In Flanders Fields the poppies blow" in Boezinge on 3 May 1915. But to be honest, living nearby I never see poppies on or before 3 May. (But to be honest again, I am ... a bit red/green blind... Just a bit, for your poppy is brilliantly red indeed ! Even to me.)

Aurel,

Last year: 26 April! Remember the warm spring, just like in 1915 ...
