Large sunflower crop on the edge of town with lots of bright yellow flowers that have large centres; one large flower is directly facing the camera. In the far background are glimpses of residential properties. The flower heads are standing tall with their large green leaves below.

In the distance are glimpses of residential properties and trees, brown hills to the left, and a completely clear blue sky above. The flower heads are standing tall with their large green leaves below. In the foreground on the field edge are long grasses and weeds including scattered white flowers.

Wide overview photo of the sunflower field which appears like a sinuous stream of yellow flowers and green foliage flowing through the field, bounded in the foreground by long summer grasses and weeds. Beyond are residential properties, trees, brown hills to the left, and clear blue sky above the whole scene.

What a fun series, Liz! Sunflowers are so entertaining, both up close and en masse. I just love your third image with the “sinuous stream” of yellow flowing through it.

Last week we drove by a couple of recently plowed fields that have had sunflowers other years. Last year a lot of them did poorly as it was too wet early on. I’m hoping we’ll see a showing more like yours this year!

Thank you for sharing these lovely images, Liz. There are few scenes in nature more cheering than vast expanses of flowers, especially if they are as cheerful as sunflowers.
