A local orchard creates both sunflower and corn mazes for children. I was excited to go there to photograph the sunflowers. Imagine my disappointment when I arrived to find the sunflower maze cut down to the ground. But, a nearby summer squash field had rows of sunflowers interspersed with the squash rows. Capturing some photos of these sunflowers made the trip worthwhile. The filtered sunlight on this bloom caught my eye. Happy Foofy Friday, friends. Enjoy!

You captured this really well. The sunlight is hitting the petals almost perfectly. The detail is very good.

Like Carol before me I also like a lot the shadows on the face of this flowery sundial.
Great catch, dear friend.

It is a very nice effect Thad and it looks like it gave the flower a deeper richer color,this is a beauty for sure and very nicely captured.

My thanks to all who leave comments for my work and to those of you who like one enough to make it a favourite. To touch just one person that way makes each image worthwhile. . . . . . . . . .. . . . "The question is not what you look at, but what you see" ~ Marcel Proust
