Holy canola
Sweden's color palette tends to be dominated by green in the summer and white in the winter. So where's all the yellow coming from? This canary-colored field is full of canola, a common crop here in the country's south whose buttery blossoms pop open every May. When the plains turn to gold, you know it's not long until summer, when the sun will brighten this countryside well into the night.
