Urban poppies

At this time of year it’s commonplace to see lots of photographs featuring fields full of poppies. The scarlet blossoms are in full bloom and make for an arresting sight, often contrasting beautifully with green fields of barley and wheat.

I don’t have one of those shots.

So, instead, here are some hardy poppies making a life for themselves in a somewhat less photogenic location. But who cares about the placement? The poppies have nontheless made themselves the star of the show in this incongruous patch of concrete and metal fencing.
