IMG_5610 WIC #121 - Beauty

- This Weekly Informal Challenge number 121 is "Beauty"

Well since they say BEAUTY is in the eye of the beholder, this is a WIDE OPEN challenge.
Show us something that is beautiful to you.
Maybe push yourself to look at something that you find beauty in from a different perspective or keep it simple.
Just show beauty in your own way. -

This sunflower though almost lost all it pedals is still pretty to me.
It's a hard sunflower to photograph, maybe because it's so dark and the exposure
comes out almost black.

I got lucky in shooting in the front but with the heat, the petals have fallen off.
We are in heatwave #6.
This Summer, I have never counted so many heatwaves.

This is one of the same, shot about one month ago.

Our sunflowers were planted late, so we don't have anything yet....
This is charming Sue Anne! :)
