Happy Summer!
An appropriate image for the first day of summer I thought. Hope you all have a safe and wonderful summer!

Sad to say that this 1/2 acre field of wildflowers is no more ... consumed by a local school board. Keep making memories folks! :wavey:

And they call it progress, I much rather look at a field of wildflowers rather than another parking lot (or what ever). Looks like it's going to be a great summer, enjoy! Nice find and thanks for sharing!

That's a beautiful composition of Black-eyed Susans, Wayne. Hope you're summer's off to a good start too, and that you're able to get out with a camera often. It's not my favorite season, but so far, the flowers have been exceptionally nice this year with all the rain we've had.

Nice flowers, at least Black Eyed Susans aren't endangered in any way.

I like your composition Wayne. I too am saddened by development of natural areas. But, as long as we keep making more people, we will have to put them somewhere. And we want our children and grand children to have better that we had. It's an endless cycle until Jesus comes back.
