Re: PESO - Sunflower II

[Mark C]

Thanks Ann!

The exhibit is still up - no sales last I checked. Its the rare bird who 
gets rich off art exhibits in Three Rivers, Michigan... But I'm all set 
with new inventory for my December sales.

Re: PESO - Sunflower II

[Mark C]

Thanks PJ. The irony is that this sunflower is only about 1.5 inches in 
diameter - just a weedy sprig struggling in  the compost under the bird 
feeder. So in that sense - it falls a bit short of being the big 
glorious sunflowers that everyone loves.


Whenever I try growing the big ones some critter eats the flowers, 
usually before they fully open. Its always at night so its probably a 
raccoon.

Re: PESO - Sunflower II

[Mark C]

Thanks, Dan - I like them both and can envision them together as a pair.

I had hoped to catch the bud in the first image before any of the petals 
popped, so the slight imperfection of a couple petals breaking free is a 
little off from my plan.  I have a couple of other potential subjects 
that I may be able to catch at the right moment.


Plants are by no means fast moving but a day or even half a day can mean 
the difference between the subject envisioned and the subject on hand.

Thanks, Jack - I'd love a chance to photograph some of those huge fields 
of sunflowers. I chance by them once in a while - probably just once or 
twice a year - never in a situation to get photos.
