    Beautiful! Are you lucky and have sunflowers in your garden? I have always loved them, but found they don't like the humidity in my garden.

    Hi Pat! I'm very happy to visit your blog today. Lots of beautiful work and I like that you experiment also. Your sunflower is gorgeous and I love the hazy background. One of summer's nicest flower. I'll be back to see more.
