Two Doors Up Is Macro World

Our neighbors up the street have some great flowers and I happen to have a great macro lens, so...macro madness ensued in full sun and 100 degree heat. They have an "accidental" sunflower growing tall right out front- the result of bird seed gone awry. Bad news for the birds. Good news for me. A perfect sunflower bloom (images 2 & 4 below). The last image is a sunflower pod on the verge of blooming.
