The smaller sunflower is seeing its last days. Gone are the maroon leaves of the flower and now the seeds are maturing. I keep waiting to see when the birds start to feed on them. Fall is here even though I am not ready for it to be here.
As I search for interesting and different photos for my blog I have to discern a good photograph from a pretty picture. I have some really great shots of color that look more just pretty than one that stands out as a good photo. This shot was selected over many different ones as the maturing flower creates an ugly rather than a beauty. I still think there is a beauty in it at this stage and the leaves and stems really do create a great design.

I love the different textures in this photo.
Me too.
I love the photo of Button in the foliage.
I agree with you, there is beauty in plants at all stages of their life. Hope the birds get their fair share of seeds.
This really IS a great photo, Larry. The colors, textures and fine detail are all amazing...makes a great composition. Even the tiny hairs on the leaves...wow!
Looked at this one again and I'm thinking it could be a Van Gogh painting!
No doubt, it’s a pretty photo! Life is not always beautiful, we should be ready to accept and appreciate the other side of it.
It is a sad shot.
