Beautiful sunshine and a bumble to boot. What a delightfully vibrant post Terry. The clarity and colors are amazing and it's such a pleasing sight. I think that the background 'glass' effect takes a little away from the beauty of this sunflower but it's a beautiful job as always.

What a brilliant image Terry! Was this flower shot against a reflective glass background or did you manipulate post shoot? I'd love to know the details. The detail and color are magnificant but that background really gives this shot dazzle. anne :-)

A beautiful photo and presentation, Terry. I love the glass (?) squares effect and the composition and focus can't be beat! Sunflowers are such wonderful flowers - thanks! Patty

This is so beautiful! Did you put the background in or was there something behind the sunflower? It's really awesome. How do you manage to find the perfect quotes to go with your shots?

Nice backdrop, excellent photography! I think that's called heliotropism. Sunflowers are just so great!

Sunflowers are always a happy subject for a bright photo, this one is no exeption, well done, it have become a beautifull image, great glassy bg and a good sharp bee.

The sunflowers are popping out all the place on the site lately. I am admiring that background. Was that glass there naturally or is that an "effect" you put in? Beautiful sunflower. Nicely displayed. The bee is an added bonus. Good catch.

I like the effect you applied to the 'background.' Very well done. That bee looks hungry and I can't say I blame him for stopping by such a lovely flower. Enchanting photo indeed :)

Generally, by the time you are Real, most of your hair has been loved off, and your eyes drop out and you get loose in the joints and very shabby. But these things don't matter at all, because once you are Real you can't be ugly, except to people who don't understand. ~Margery Williams The Velveteen Rabbit~
