Spring-like cloud drama over the glowing rape field by Silva Wischeropp

I discovered this enchanting, light-intensive nature shot with a bright, yellow rapeseed field in combination with a dramatic cloudy sky during my photographic journey in the district of Barnim in the small district of Trampe. The blossoming of the rapeseed fields in the Brandenburg region is a huge attraction for me every year. The wooden raised hide in the centre of the composition has a highly decorative and typical effect. The surrounding deciduous forests and scattered rows of trees lend the spring motif a harmonious atmosphere. The unique luminosity of the rapeseed blossoms gives the natural landscape tremendous energy and colour. A visit to the slightly hilly Barnim is worthwhile for an attractive hiking and cycling trail. Varied landscapes surrounded by bodies of water, forests and extensive agricultural fields reward every visit to nature.

This photo was taken on 21 May 2021 in the early evening hours with the NIKON D800 camera (lens: NIKKOR 20.0 mm f/2.8). The true yellow splash of colour in the middle of the green nature gives the picture motif a harmonious, colourful and warm atmosphere.

The Barnim district is rich in nature. From a bird's eye view in early summer, you can see almost nothing but green. Embedded in it are dark and light-coloured bodies of water, small and large lakes, canals and the large river at the edge. You almost have to look for the towns and villages among all the greenery. You can find them by following the roads, which can often only be recognised by the lines of the avenue trees. The settlements are also largely green - "greened through", as the conservationists say.
