[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
Papaver is a genus of poppies, belonging to the Poppy family (Papaveraceae).

Its 120-odd species include the opium poppy and corn poppy. These are annual, biennial and perennial hardy, frost-tolerant plants growing natively in the temperate climates of Eurasia, Africa and North America (Canada, Alaska, Rocky Mountains). One section of the genus (Section Meconella) has an alpine and circumpolar arctic distribution and includes some of the most northerly-growing vascular land plants.

Papaver grows in disturbed soil. Its seeds may lay dormant for years, till the soil is disturbed. Then they bloom in great numbers under cool growing conditions.

Ciao Nadia bel papavero di un bel colore rosso acceso, su questo tipo di foto dovresti però curare meglio la messa a fuoco e la nitidezza, a me piace anche così, ma nelle macro è importante evidenziare i particolari, buon week end, ciao Silvio
