Greetings to all.  This week starts with a sunflower.  Over the next weeks
you will see a lot of sunflowers as they are in full bloom and the birds
have spread them everywhere.  So first we have one pointed down even though
there is plenty of water:

As a youngish person I loved to watch the really bad Sci-Fi movies; this
sunflower bud reminded me of some of the monsters gaping mouths:

The next two are my continued study of Sago Palms as their new fronds open
up:

This will also start a series of images taken with "bad" lenses.  This is a
probably a Nikkor 50 1.2 on 50mm of extension tube:

All the best.
