“look at its shape, with vibrant yellows and oranges, a sunflower can brighten your day...it's as if it is smiling like a happy face painted on the sun...so if you do only one thing all day, let it be to smile, so you can brighten the day of others around you, just like the sunflower.” -Bodhi Smith, Photographer

Sunflowers and Pumpkins
I think the sunflower is the happiest flower in the garden. Especially this time of the year when the weather is changing and other plants are at the end of their life cycle. Sunflowers are vibrant and full of life!

I was the lucky recipient of two sunflower bouquets recently and everytime I walk into the room where they are on display...they make me smile. Last weekend I took them outside to photograph so I could share them with you.....hoping they make you smile as well!
