Description
Talking to the Sunflower the other week and she told me her time had come. That her petals had lost their fight with the elements Wind and Rain and that she now has turned her back on the Sun and looks towards Winter. The only thing left for her to do was to scatter her seeds and then curl up and die, to return to the soil that sustained her through the Summer months. With that I said goodbye to the Sunflower.
I am totally mad in case you didn't know already.
Thanks for stopping by for a look and for any comments you care to make.
May the sun shine down on you, where ever you are.
Didn't post yesterday, I was busy with the kitchen, I put that much into it I've had three hypo's in two days. Nearly finished now.

Of course you're totally mad, my dear. That's part of your charm, and it's why we love you so. I love the light in this shot - it's just beautiful! Very nice work, my friend.

Such a wonderful capture, I love the train of your thoughts too. dear Jeff. The birds love the seeds in the head too. All will come full circle soon and again we will see bright blooms. A wonderful posting and I adore your "madness". Take good care of you please three hypo's in two days is not good, dear friend. We need you so much for our daily dose of SUNSHINE!! Sunny huggies for a happy night for you! Di. xx

We all knew that anyway, Jeff. Thats why we all think your a good'n. I like this Jeff because its a different look at Autumn - without the splendour of what most of us would choose to upload, I mean the golden, yellow red and brown leaves for example. The words are very fitting to the picture. It does read that "SHE" (the Sunflower) "TOLD YOU" , this worries me more than YOU talking to the flower, so in my 'book' this means (and we must tell Mick), that the sunflower IS answering you back lol. Don't do too much mate !

Just tie a wire on the doors you messed up and say you broke lol tell her "See; it works the doors will open with the wires" [that will not go well with the wife] the sunflower knows when to go back to where it was and will return too next year
