You get enough sun on PEI for sunflowers? And pretty ones too?
Mary MacADNski: We're the beach capital of Canada, Ray. Of course we get sun. We're also a farm based economy - again, sunshine.

i've been sad today. this makes me less so. who wants to be sad when there is a field of sunflowers out there, somwhere near the ocean with a sweet wee house for me to live in? nice story. cheers. ~S.
Mary MacADNski: Hope you feel less sad each day and glad flowers help. There are lots in my archives and even more beautiful ones with the real flower photographers on SC. I always find them uplifting as well.
This is a lovely photo. I love the lines of the composition. It has all come together really well.
Mary MacADNski: Thanks, P. Karen. I took several different shots. Always hard to choose which one.
Fantastic. It's almost as if each flower is shouting "Look at me! Me! Me!"
Mary MacADNski: Ha, I think you're right and they're getting their wish.
Lovely composition and sweep of sunflowers is joyful and mood enhancing. (:o)
Mary MacADNski: They are definately mood enhancing. You can't help but smile driving by.

These flowers shout for attention - if you look close, even the furthest flowers still have great detail. And such a nice rural setting. Likey stuff.

Excellent picture.
Mary MacADNski: Thanks, Louis. I got quite a few shots of the field that day.
Very lovely picture Mary.
Mary MacADNski: Thanks, bridge.

Followed a link you gave to 'Chad' in another thread to view this.
I am so glad I did. This shot is so spirit lifting.

Have you trained those sunflowers to face the same way smile
Mary MacADNski: Thanks,s Pops. It's amazing how they do that.

Glorious field of flowers. Love the way they take up most of the photo, and the little house occupies the upper left, and water and sky are in the upper right.
Mary MacADNski: Thanks, Leora. I showed the owner of this field this shot. They want a copy.
Beautiful, a piece of sunflower paradise smile
Mary MacADNski: It's amazing isn't it. The farmer said cars lined up on the road to look and take photos.
