Papaver rhoeas

Also known as the Red Poppy, the Corn Poppy, the Flanders Poppy, the Shirley Poppy and the Common Red Poppy – I passed this lot in a field near Marlborough the other day as I was driving past on another job and returned today to shoot a couple of pictures before they disappear for another year.
