Against a red background

The trees around here are still green and most are evergreen anyway, but my cherry tree has 3 main branches and right now one has lost its leave, one is this red, and the other is still green. I had to get down on the ground and twist like a pretzel to get one sunflower in front of the red part but I just KNEW it would be worth it.


To live is so startling it leaves little time for anything else.

You did a great job. It looks beautiful. Sunflowers are such uplifting flowers.

Beautiful focus on the sunflower. You're right. It was worth it.

Your sunflower is perfect. And I love the blue sky and bright sunshine that you captured. It's a grey, drizzly, rainy, yucky day here and it does a person good to see such happy colors.
