You won’t be entirely alone while taking photos of lavender.
Obviously lavender seems to entrance photographers to a degree that they become oblivious to the dangers of car traffic. That’s the reason for these warning signs that I saw over and again.
By the way, as I already said, there are a lot of other flowers, mostly at the sides of the lavender fields. Sometimes you’ll see fields of poppies though. Believe me, they are not easier to process. I dare you to make them glow but not burn out. Happy processing 😄
Oh and, before I forget, here’s one more thing about lavender: you can eat it. In Aix-an-Provence I bought calisson, a typical regional kind of candy, and they have some lavender-flavored variants there. If you try them, make sure to not think of toilet cleaners, and then you may well like the taste. I certainly did.
