Sunny Sunflower © 2010 Bo Mackison
Bright colors. Oranges and yellows of the sunflower surrounded by the greens of the background foliage and the blue skies. Harmony! Photographed at the Allen Centennial Gardens on the urban campus of the University of Wisconsin in Madison.
About Bo MackisonI'm a photographer, book-artist, traveler, naturalist, and creator of the Contemplative Creatives Journey, An Online Workshop and Community and Desert Wisdom Cards and Workshops. Though often not well known, I find the desert a welcoming place - a healing space. Its mysteries and gifts transformed me several years ago. Since that first encounter, I return again and again to fill my well in what most people think of as a desolate region. I'd love to share my desert discoveries and wisdom with you. Please subscribe to receive my five part mini email course The Gifts of the Desert. It's my gift to you.
Nice capture, Bo. They are such pretty flowers. We have not tried to grow them, but the chipmunks plant some every year. This year they have not done well at all.
Beautiful detail with a great background. Very nice use of DOF.
