The yellow glow to court the blue sky!

The bright yellow glow sunflowers, to court the blue sky....



The giant Russian sunflowers in their period of greatest prosperity, was set against a blue sky... The particular value of sunflowers is that, they do and keep our face to the sunshine, so we cannot see the shadow....
