Yes of course those of you who mentioned the sunflower (tournesol in French) were right. Look at the flower's heart carefully, you'll see the maturation process making progress from the outside to the center.Oui bien sûr, ceux d'entre vous qui ont mentionné le tournesol (sunflower en anglais) avaient raison. Regardez-en le coeur avec attention, vous verrez la progression de la maturation de la périphérie vers le centre.
Et en plus il y a une abeille sur le coeur, ! J'espère que ce champ de tournesols n'est pas traité avec tous ces produits qui font mourir nos butineuses. Chaque fois que je vois un tournesol, je vois le soleil, même quand il n'y en a pas.
ReplyDeleteThey are such amazing flowers, and these are gorgeous photos of them. That bee must be in heaven.
ReplyDeletePerfect, just perfect! My son grew sunflowers in a large pot a few summers ago. One grew quite large. It was so much fun to watch the flowers form & then start to open.
ReplyDeleteC'est épatant. Toi et Cergie vous avez presque les mêmes photos, presque en même temps. Mais presque seulement. J'adore les tournesols, mais je n'en ai plus depuis des années. Il va falloir que je remédie à ce problème l'été prochain.
ReplyDeleteYour photos are stunning!! We have visited Avignon in June 2005 and I bought a lovely bright tablecloth with sunflowers printed on it at one of the shops close to the Pont du Gard. I want to go back to Provence one day!!
ReplyDeleteIt is in this stage of development that the American Gold Finch birds love to pull the immature seeds out and eat them. I just took a lot of pictures of them doing that yesterday.
ReplyDeleteA very nice set of two photographs. Fields of sunflower are becoming a better deal for farmers than some other crops although there is a big rush on now to plant corn to use for fuel.
Beautiful! I love sunflowers.
ReplyDeleteGorgeous Nathalie! I like the two photos as well.
ReplyDeleteWhat beautiful pictures of that field of gold!
ReplyDeleteThese are beautiful photographs - love the golden yellow and detail of the sunflowers!
ReplyDeleteGet me to Provence now. Sunshine yellow and cornflower blue, beautiful place, and beautiful images. Big Sgih!
ReplyDeletece champs de soleil est magnifique. c'etait vraiment la fleur de l'été.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful Photos! Cheers from West Sacramento Photo of the Day.
ReplyDeleteExcellent titre.
ReplyDeleteCe devrait etre le nom de la fleur!!
Je viens de voir que cela faisait l'objet de ton billet précédent mais c'est épatant à regarder, le centre de cette fleur! C'est comme les poupées russes: il ya des tas de petites fleurs dans la grance fleur. Très joli!
ReplyDeleteJ'en ai aussi trouvé hier à Brooklyn. Euh, juste un.
This post any yesterday's are the essence of Provence. Add some lavender and we could smell the perfume of the pictures.
ReplyDeleteHa!
ReplyDeleteMy husband noticed the tall flower sticking out.
I noticed the little one that hasn't caught up.
Whaouou
