Sunshine on a sunny day

[summerfield]

why are the sunflowers looking away from the sun? maybe they're blinded by the light? 😂 i made a joke.

[katy]

This is really very pretty! I like it in B&W

@summerfield nice song title joke!

[Kathy]

@summerfield Apparently sunflowers quit following the sun as they age. I'm chuckling at your joke. The sun was bright and hot.
@grammyn Thank you Katy. Something different.

Lovely image. We are fascinated by watching our emerging sunflowers turn towards the sun during the day. I'll watch and see what happens as the flowers appear and age.

Beautiful shot and light.

[Wylie]

lovely focus on that central flower.

I didn't realise that about aging sunflowers ... looks good in b&w

[katy]

I like it so much I came back to give it a FAV

[Margaret Brown]

Nice details edit and capture

[Ann H. LeFevre]

Nice shot- the black and white disguises the sun's intensity. It looks like late afternoon almost sunset time to me. Good shot.

[Pyrrhula]

Great B+W editing and light capture

@jamibann Thank you Issi. Sunflowers are so wonderful to look at. I enjoy the birds enjoy them too. I had a downy woodpecker working on the seeds in the center of one yesterday afternoon.
@haskar Thank you Hannah. The light was bright but diffused by all the clouds.
@pusspup Thanks Wylie.
@ziggy77 Thank you Jo.
@fbailey Just found it out when I looked up because of @summerfiled's comment. Thank you.
@grammyn That is high praise indeed Katy.
@craftymeg Thank you Margaret.
@olivetreeann Thank you Ann. Besides sunflowers are usually shown in color. Thought I'd do something different. Tried SC but too much yellow in the leaves and it didn't look good.
@pyrrhula Thank you Ferry.
