    This is awesome, James!!!!! It makes me want to get out there and get some sunflower pics. xo

  • reflector replied

    Thanks Lori ! :) It’s that weed / flower I photographed last year. But this time I pulled it out of the ground and put it in a vase for a staged shot. Thanks for the fave !

    Thanks Solomon ! It’s a very interesting little flower that closes up every day after the shade falls on it and opens the next morning ! :)

    Gorgeous macro James, such pretty and hardy little flowers;)

  • reflector replied

    Thanks Shanina ! The jury is still out whether it’s a weed or a decent plant, but the flower has very punchy colours. :))

    I didn’t realise Gazania was classified as a weed, suppose it’s because it’s such a hardy little plant and spreads so quickly;)

  • reflector replied

    Laughing here ! I had no idea what it’s called Shanina [ and there is no jury ], thanks for letting me know. :-))

    aww poor little Gazania!!! hard to grow, here in the wet.hinterland and they cost a rediculous amount of $$ to buy a plant I keep pinching bits from peoples places and trying to get them to grow ,but they still die here. Okay near the beach [Mermaid]/Burleigh] I had them everywhere, in all sorts of colours… anyhooo gorgeous descripton re fire

  • reflector replied

    This one rarely gets watered but it’s survived for the last year here. I thought it was a weed. Thanks Ginny ! :))

    Good looking and immensly colorful

  • reflector replied

    Thanks Larry ! I’m amazed at how many varieties of this are in Google images – I thought it was just a weed in the yard until people [ above ] let me know what it’s called.
