Attack of the Sunflowers

I'd asked my get-pushed partner to create a forced perspective shot. I thought I'd give it a try myself when I saw these huge stands of sunflowers in Grant Park. These were SO tall that I'm standing up to take this -- and they still towered over the skyscrapers in the distance, as they eyed the unsuspecting walkers.
They have no idea what is in store for them. RUN people...run like your life depends on it. This is hilarious!
