Priceless

Cost of a tiny "grow your own" flower pot at Target=$1.00

Planting the seeds with your grandsons and seeing them grow to bloom=Priceless.

C&C always welcome, and thanks for looking,

It looks to me you handled the lighting very well. The colors look great and I like the background, too.

Very neat flower closeup, Morris. I'm a big fan of yellow images of most any type. Excellent detail in the immediate center too........well done.

That's a great looking sunflower with excellent dof. I hope your grandsons are getting to watch these grow and bloom.

Morris:

Agree that the experience is priceless!

The sunflower is full of interesting structures - good example to tell your grandsons about the Fabonacci sequence in the arrangements atthe center of the bloom.
