One of the things I liked about this was all the different directions the flowers were pointing and the different stages of life they represented. #1480886

Unfortunately just before we arrived there was a high speed chase by a policeman and a teenager for unapparent reasons. For the first time in a long time both went over the steep walls into the Niagara River. The teen was killed and the policeman was in critical condition. What a sad thing and way to loose life. #10279702

Emile, what a bright image to put on first thing in the morning, well done.
as for the chase, believe the victim was on drugs #10279732

On a brighter note, the wine tasting looks very inviting! #10280111

I think I have 64 sunflowers on my webpage, but none like this. Now I have something else to shoot for. The detail, lighting and colors are outstanding Emile. Hope my jealousy isn't apparent. #10284730
