Here is Sally's prompt for this week...
"This week we are focusing on what is growing and changing about you or the environment around you"
Here in Upper Canada, we are all about Back to Class at the moment, even if you don't have someone who is GOING back to class...and it is hard to believe summer is officially (if not actually) over and we are soon to be in Fall mode.
I took another trip to my favorite park this weekend, and I think of all the pictures I took, this one says where my mind is these days:
It speaks to me of endings...but with possibilities to come.
Oddly enough, as I was driving home from the park, I noticed something on the main street next to my little neighbourhood, which I've never noticed before....I can't believe I haven't seen this!
Look at what's growing here, right across the street!
There are fields and fields and fields of sunflowers...I assume they're being grown to harvest the oil...but Sally, you opened my eyes!
See what is growing and changing around our other participants at their blogs here:
I thought it was exavtly 2/3rds of the way through... love your sunflower think the dandylion is evil... need to get rid of my first 'link' as it goes to the wrong week!
ReplyDeleteFields of sunflowers are so nice! Glad you noticed them.
ReplyDeleteI have never seen fields of sunflowers. What a treat.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful shots. Amazing how what is so close to us sometimes goes unnoticed for so long.
ReplyDeleteSunflowers are the best! they are such happy flowers!
ReplyDeleteDon't you love it when we see things for the first time even though they're right in front of us? This has happened to me quite often doing FoL :)
ReplyDeleteGreat interpretation of this week's prompt!
Think how far those sunflowers had to go to reach the sky! wonderful that you were able to enjoy them before the harvest!
ReplyDeleteLovely fields of sunflowers, haven't see one in a while! I love Sally's challenge exactly for this reason: it makes me be more careful with what's around me (and I am careful to start with anyhow!), more tuned in with myself and the environment.
ReplyDeleteGood job showing growth and change. Aren't sunflowers fun to watch as the change throughout the day to face the sun?
ReplyDeleteYep, my son started school this past week. I love the sunflowers so cool that you discovered them!
ReplyDeleteYep, wer're back to class too though my daughter has already missed several days after she was diagnose with mono. Nasty stuff.
ReplyDeleteYour photos are gorgeous! I just love dandelions and sunflowers!
I love sunflowers! And your shots are gorgeous! Thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteNothing is prettier than a field FULL of sunflowers smiling at you. I can't wait to see that in a field near me. I love the dandelion shot. She looks like a happy little face to me.
