This is an F² image too. This time F² doesn't stand for 'Foofy Friday', but for 'Flowering Flax'. Please don't tell me that this image is tilted, as I leveled my camera on the 'horizon' (the trees in the distance). It's a proof as well that Holland isn't that flat, as often said by you in your comments, LOL!
This image was taken on the peninsula Walcheren, in the province of Zeeland.
Hope you'll like it. Thanks in advance for your comment.
Edit: please see Cindy's question and my reply on it below.

Never argue with an idiot. They'll drag you down to their level, then beat you with experience.
This is just stunningly beautiful. I saw fields over here full of those blue flowers last summer, but didnt know what they were called. Thank you for enlightening me. I now know it was Flax that I saw. The colour and light in this capture is wonderful. Fav'd and thank you for sharing!

This Image GRABBED my EYE. That's Why I Stopped By.

This is so lovely, and it almost looks like you could just walk off and out of the picture. Kind of like the earth being flat and not round. :) I really like all of the lovely flowers, that go on as far as you can see. Tigs♥ =^..^=

Nature in all her glory is my uplift on life and so is my love of photography. sandi ♪ ♫
I can tell you spent some time composing this SEA. One is generally rewarded for hard work and attention to detail.
You have rewarded us with a fine shot that seems endless in its beauty.
Good health to you and yours.

People are like cameras--sometimes they lose focus.
Gorgeous comp. color, sky and lighting. You've covered it all very well. I like how the flowers are endless. Nicely done.

Smooth seas do not make skilful sailors.
I love Flax fields, they look like a reflection of the blue sky.
The is a beautiful shot. I like the low angle you used, it shows the tiny blue flowers very nicely.

Oh this is so gorgeous. I would love to see a field of flax. Do they harvest this in Holland?

Like to confirm this Cindy. It depends on the species whether it's used to make linen, fishing nets, and paper from its fiber or to make linseed, dye, medicines, hair gels, and soap of the seeds. By checking-out THIS LINK, you can read more about it.

My thanks to all who leave comments for my work and to those of you who like one enough to make it a favourite. To touch just one person that way makes each image worthwhile. . . . . . . . . .. . . . "The question is not what you look at, but what you see" ~ Marcel Proust
Such a lovely capture and scene, looks like a fabulous place for a great walk
