The emblematic Plateau de Valensole, famous for its rolling fields of lavender, beneath the Aurora Borealis last night.
Photo credit: local photographer Vincent Ghesquière (hugely talented!)
Bright pink aurora borealis over the Plateau de Valensole in the South of France. Two trees silhouetted like lattice in the middle distance against a pulsing magenta sky. Parallel lines of young lavender running to the horizon, with low mountains in the far distance.

Your flowers are beauties!
I give you what I think is a perfect leaf to complement them 😊
