Fields with hedgerows or drystone walls are your best bet for getting good pictures.

Borrow a bike or beg a lift and get out there
Thanks for the tip, will keep an eye out for them combines! Thats a funny image, some farmer rolling aong a field with half the caste of Noah's ark trailing behind haha!

Cheers
