August Break - Looking Toward the Sun

What is more August and more summertime than sunflowers with their drooping heads and their golden petals?  It is definitely August.

    Sorry, I had to laugh at Stephanie's Sinflowers. :)

    These are awesome photos of one of my favorite flowers. I just wish I could grow the dang things! Your angles and edits are perfect. I think I see a little bee in the last one.

    Hope you have a great weekend in case I don't get back on the computer!

    Haha, sinflowers, my friend who grew up in west Texas would say that as she had to pick them out of the fields on a farm so they didn't take over! These are just gorgeous, and that first one with that blue sky ....sigh!

    Awesome sunflower pictures. The contrast between the blue sky and yellow flowers is great and I like the delicacy of the petals you captured.
