I call this one "Growth Chart" Can you tell why? :D I saw it when I was cleaning pastures, but it was too late when I took it. It's too blurry. I'll try again.

I've never seen a sunflower this pale color.

And look at this one!

One of my favorites this year!

This is another. I've had a poster for years that reads "Earth Laughs in Flowers" and I think that's a perfect quote for this one. :D

Okay--can I have another favorite? This is not edited! The sky was very light that day and the sunflowers very tall.

This one seems shy. :wink:

And, I'll end with a few of these. My daughter came home a few weekends ago and we went to the Waterfront Arts Festival. She bought a pretty little dress made with batiks and asked if I'd take her picture by the sunflowers. I thought the wheat field was good too. She was a good sport about letting me practice some settings. :wink:

AWESOME!!
ABSOLUTELY AWESOME!
I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE the unedited one!
Rachel is soooo beautiful! Just love the one where she has her hand at her neck. And the one in the field....so pretty!
Ok, ALL of them are pretty!
Did I mention they are pretty??
Oh yea, I like the one with the bumble bee flying around too!
Hmm....what others do I like?
Oh heck...I like them all! I love them all!
Did I mention that?
Where's MY Rosie? :)

Karla, I had to laugh at your "Growth Chart." I see the increase in instances along with the increase in vertical length.
Beautiful pictures! Are you a professional photographer?
Your daughter is very cute, and she has the most contagiously cheery smile!

Terri--you crack me up (so what's new?) :lol: :lol:
redquilter--I don't do any more than anyone else. I just keep moving. :D
Lisanne--well, years ago I had a little business where I'd go into people's houses to take photos of their kids. A friend suggested it--she wanted me to take her kids' pictures. That only lasted two years... I did some senior pictures for kids--not a lot at all. It was very simple--all I took to shoots was my camera. So--since I did get paid--it was a professional job. I'd never do weddings or anything that couldn't be redone. It's mostly a nice camera, except I don't use half the neat stuff on it. I'm still learning the basics.
Isn't that a neat growth chart? :wink:

Brilliant photography - I love the growth charts - I have a sunflower quilt hanging on my sitting room as I type this. It's my summer quilt. I have one for most seasons, but haven't managed to make the autumn one yet. Thanks for shareing and I think you should go into it more. What about a calendar, or post cards/greetings cards. This pics would SELL!
