I recently discovered the most beautiful field of sunshine not 4 miles from my home. I saw an acquaintance post some of the most beautiful pictures she took in this sea of sunflowers and when I asked where they were taken, I was astonished to find out that I was so very close to this magnificence.
We did a drive by once and were amazed that the sunflowers faces follow the sun (hence the name, right?) so we timed our stop for when we thought the sunflowers would be “looking” in the right direction. I was a bit concerned because I couldn’t clearly identify to whom the field belongs and had I been able to I certainly would have asked permission before taking photos there. However, I was sure to be excruciatingly careful that we stepped in between the rows so as not to break or damage any of the beautiful flowers.
We all hopped out for a quick impromptu photo shoot with nothing more than my cell phone. My daughter and I snapped the shots and we were in and out within 10 minutes…the results? I think the sea is breathtaking!
