Abandoned Airfield Near P104 (Jaunpils-Tukums) Road (Latvia)

| Latvia | 40 seen

As I stated in my previous post about beautiful poppy fields near P104 Jaunipils - Tukums road in Latvia, there is a hidden treasure inside those lovely fields - an abandoned airfield. 

I doubt it has been used for any military means, more for agriculture (field spraying from a biplane).

So I headed in and here is what I got:

I just love such low profile perspective photography. Grey concrete in contrast to dark blue skies.

This is the same poppy field I wrote before

I could probably do some of the photography in black and white for my digital photography school project, but I felt there is no need to add drama to this photo story.
