Fields of weed.

in #nature5 years ago

One summer day in the north.

No farmers left where I live. All the old grasslands grow dense with weeds and forest. The same happens in large parts of Norway. Every year, hundreds of farms are closed down due to poor profitability.

Greetings @karja,

Such lovely photographs of these former farm lands......thank you for bringing them to Steemit.

Cheers!

Wishing you and your family all the best. ^__^

Lovely pictures

Good documentary shooting, gives strong feeling of how the abandonment feels to you. Well done.

Thanks so much @scotgillespie for pleasant comment.

Beautiful pictures Jan!
Your place is paradise!
I've seen fields of pink in BE but that's on the way to France and just drivin passed through it. Up close is very different!
They call them weed but really they're the earth's ornaments!

Nice pictures, but where the farmers gone? We need food

Hello..!!
:D
@karja
Beautiful...Beautiful photos...!!!
It has to be so heartbreaking for the farmers to leave. The farmers in my area struggle trying to keep their farms going. Hard work with very little to no profit.

Such beautiful pictures! It's very sad that the farms are closing, but the weeds make for a lovely photo. The sunset photo at the end is really stunning.

수익이 없는 농토를 지키려는 농부가 줄어드는 현상은 어느나라나
똑같군요 사진으로는 아름답게 보이지만 폐허가 되어가는 모습
보는 마음 착잡하겠어요

It is very nice to see such a delight for the eyes @karja, I also missed going into the fields and picking up rice stalks.

thanks you

Beautiful picture my friend @karja👍

Awww, that's sad that the farms are closing... :(
You may call them weeds but they are pretty, I would like to call them wildflowers... The fields of purple are gorgeous!

Thanks again for nice commenting.

You're most welcome, my friend! :)
