Description
Once left the road I pass through a little valley filled with rosebay willowherb (Epilobium angustifolium), the one you've seen before in the Ginals-series, but I've never seen so many of these flowers together, reaching up to about 2.5 meters (8 feet) height! I'm dwarfed by these flowers, that I never have seen this tall.
Shooting myself with little telelens is fun: putting the cam on tripod, pointing, clicking and there I run, 10 seconds time to take my postion and *click* there I am, as if I was waiting there a long time for the photographer to shoot.... :)

Very clever to include youself in the photo. It would be difficult to appreciate the height of these lovely flowers without a comparison. Why are they so tall? Is there a herd of cows nearby? ;o)
