A red Sunflower, 27th September. Always a cheery shot of vivid colour : ) Hope it brightens your day, if you've been having crummy weather, like rain or the "white stuff". It's been a reasonable day here, mild but rather dull. Have just got home from having to call in and buy a new external hard drive. Bought two about a month ago, and the one keeps freezing my computer completely. Art (LeapFrog!), I should have listened to your words of wisdom a little while ago and returned it sooner. Fortunately, I was told that I could still return the faulty one next week. So, now I have many dozens of files to save all over again : ( WiIl be out all evening.

Another Sunflower found in the garden at Fort Calgary. These flowers never cease to awe me with their beauty.

One of the small Sunflowers that I bought from Safeway on Friday. Three were like this one and two were bright orange. Nothing unusual, but I can never get too much of Sunflowers.

Dare I post yet another Sunflower photo??? Sorry - I really will run out eventually, LOL! This orange Sunflower that I bought at Safeway is just such a beautiful flower, with its mix of colours and its hairy, spiky bracts (?). All natural colour, by the way!
