Mellow Yellow Monday

While browsing through my most recent photos that I have categorized under Mellow Yellow, this one caught my eye.  I said (to myself) hey, that looks like an Easter bunny.  When I brought it up enlarged, I saw the bonus bug on one "ear".  Those were two of the reasons I liked this picture, but mostly I like it because it's not a perfect subject - the poor sunflower is in its "golden years" so to speak, and yet still able to give pleasure.  These little sunflowers are the kind that grow in giant golden batches along the sides of the roads here in SW Florida.  They used to grow in my yard, but one of the dogs ate most of them - I guess they also make good doggie salad.  They are, I believe, native to Florida.  This particular one was growing with its buddies in Blalock Park, here in Venice.

Please click on the Mellow Yellow Monday button to the right to join in on the fun.  Have a golden day, even if it's not perfect.  Peace.  B : )

SIX WORD SATURDAY:
Yes, I am multi tasking again!

COLOR CARNIVAL:

One day when Ricepatty and I were walking in Shamrock Park, we stopped in their Demonstration Garden to enjoy and take pictures.  The lady who happened to be the same person who planted the section we were looking at when she pulled up came in and gave us a.....you guessed it, demonstration.  She explained all the different things in the different gardens and why they were there and what purpose they served, etc.  This gorgeous bunch of color is an Ice Plant and it is a groundcover.  It appears to have the same kind of leaves as my spikey yellow flowered things (technical name of course).  The bloom looked dry like a paper flower, yet the leaves looked fleshy like succulents.  Ahhhh Mother Nature!

TMS SHOW AND TELL:
Once again, I do not have any nice pictures of food, but I do have a good one of my step-grandson eating some food - eggs and mashed peas, definitely NOT good-looking food.

CAMERA CRITTERS:
This guy resides in Blalock Park, and is a climb-on sculpture.  Some bully kicked sand in his eyes!

SHADOW SHOT SUNDAY:
The claw ......

WEEKEND REFLECTIONS:

Cameo
A Thousand Words: Photo day!



Sorry, the picture didn't come through - just click on the Seven Days, etc. button and check it out.



Write whatever comes to mind about this cameo.

What comes to my mind is that the girl in the cameo does NOT look like the women on the era when cameos were made.
