Brassica napus

Image: © Adam Ward Taken: 2 May 2011

Rapeseed near Edinburgh Airport - a now familiar scene around the British Countryside in springtime. I had spied this field while out on an earlier run and came back to take a few shots of the yellowist yellow I can remember seeing! Part of the mustard or cabbage family, this is now often grown as biofuels as well as animal feed and vegetable oil.
