For Ptah and other sunflower fans.
These are from our garden. I was in the backyard looking for birds but they weren't cooperating so I turned my long lens on the flower.

This one I call Fire Flower but it is a type of sunflower.



A more traditional giant sunflower.

I was lucky I suppose.

11. Please don't.
With all the rain we've had lately anybody could get these things to grow, plus we have had sunflowers in the same place for at least 5 years now. We don't even plant any more seeds. They just spring up now.

Thanks for the kind words about the photos. :hi:

13. When I was blonde I would say no. It was a rough week.
I have tried to dye my hair back to its natural color but I have now ended up with extremely reddish brown hair. It will probably be December before I have my natural color back. :)
