Some people say that sunflowers are God's mistake when creating flowers.
On the contrary, I think, no other flower speaks about life so laud as sunflowers. The big, smiling flower disc is like an antenna for sunshine, following the journey of the sun across the sky. What a lesson in life!

What a unique variety of sunflower. I love it with the grapes.
The Native Americans of Northern Arizona have a saying that the winter snows will be as high as the summer sunflowers. It usually comes to pass.
Beautiful photograph of the sunflower and fruit.

Sunflowers are still my favorite flower and I love all the new ones that are on the market now.
I've never seen a sunflower like that one - how unique! I had some lovely sunflowers in my my garden earlier this year, courtesy of the birds :-) They're always so cheerful in the garden.
Beautiful composition Maia. And I love sunflowers - how could something so cheerful be a mistake?
This is stunning, Maia!
