Extreme backlighting in my yard (last summer) for this shot. As soon as it quits raining I'll be planting this years seeds. Hope you enjoy.

    Gosh, the colors just POP on my monitor. Beautiful. Sunflowers are one of my favorites, but the danged squirrels bend them over and destroy them before they really get beautiful... so I stopped planting them.

    Those "danged" squirrels really messed up my yard once. Last year it was the goldfinches who had an eating frenzy.
    I save the heads (whatever is left) and throw them on the ground...it's a free for all. rolleyes1.gif

    How many photographers does it take to change a light bulb? 50. One to change the bulb, and forty-nine to say, "I could have done that better!"
