Sunflower a Mono

I definitely have a 'thing" for sunflowers. Of course, living on the prairies, I see a lot of them if I wander out past the city limits - or even in my backyard for that matter, although the scale diminishes the effect, naturally.

I'm five feet and two inches tall. Okay, maybe five feet one and a half inches tall, but the people at the Driver Licensing place were generous that day. Point being, when I stand in a field of sunflowers here (where the Great Plain begins) I am somewhat lost in it. The flowers are taller than me. All I can see, literally, is flowers and blue sky.

There's something sort of cool about that.

So, yes, the next time you are westbound on the #1, somewhere past the White Horse of St.Francis Xavier, if you see a woman's head in the middle of a field of sunflowers ... that'd be me.

Toot your horn, why don't ya?

What I am Liking Today
Rachel James is, as usual, wonderful. This is a typically marvelous staged but still candid-feeling portrait. I really admire Rachel's work and her sites are always elegant and intuitive.
