A few more pictures of bright yellow sunflowers and multi-coloured Zinnias. If I looked one direction as I rode the trail all the sunflowers were facing me, and if I looked the opposite I just saw the interesting back of the flowers.
A row of sunshine!
And look at the pattern on the reverse of those flowers.
There was every shade of yellow.
They provided a couple of props around the trails to make for more interesting poses. I think I recognized this old tractor from our spring visits to the tulip fields here. I didn't recognize the old man!
I'm afraid I'd had enough of the bumps in the trail by the time we got to the end, but it was great to see a sunflower field close to home!
As we neared the exit we arrived at the small Zinnia field.
While the sunflowers were just at their peak, it seemed to us that the zinnias were just past theirs, though they were certainly still colourful.
Then it was out the gate, around the barn and off to home for us.
LOVE those giant sunflowers.

ReplyDeletegorgeous, beautiful...spectacular!! i adore sunflowers and often photograph them from behind or the side to detail their visual interest!!!
ReplyDeleteOh, a whole field of zinnias! What magic! I love the sunflowers too of course, but rarely do we see zinnias en masses. What a treat.
ReplyDeleteThe sunflowers are gorgeous.A friend gave me a little bouquet of Zinnias a week ago and they still look wonderful.
ReplyDeleteIt's wonderful to see a field of sunflowers -- some farmers here plant between 5 and 25 acres of sunflowers occasionally.
