Here,
early morning shows off some of the patchwork of fields
in a variety of shades of green.

From a distance,
the fields take on the appearance of velvet,
close up the growing wheat sways in the spring breeze
and causes a rustling sound
that ebbs and flows
like waves
on the
ocean.

Such a stunning area – we are hoping to visit again this year. The views are lovely. This is a grand photo – showing the gorgeous fields.
OMG! Madge, this looks like carpet…swear to goodness…carpet that has just been unrolled!…:)JP
Beautiful. This reminds by of land west of Hillsboro, Oregon.
Einfach traumhaft, was für herrliche Farben !
It’s fun to see areal maps and the patchwork the countryside really is. It’s hard to see the variation from the ground.
What an amazing and beautiful view.
this is absolutely beautiful.
That is an amazing view, would love to see it again when harvest is nearing.
BEAUTIFUL! When I was looking at colleges to attend, I fell IN LOVE with the Palouse! What a gorgeous area!
That’s a great shot! I love seeing the patchwork hillside.
