Sunflower Dawn

As we walked down Anderson Avenue, my wife spotted sunflowers sprouting through the concrete sidewalk. She requested a photograph of one of the buds. I’m using that picture for my 07/17/23 postcard. When she later reviewed the image, she was surprised to discover two ants on the bud, a detail she had previously missed. One of the things I enjoy about taking pictures is finding details missed during the live experience.
