Its an overcast morning here in southern California, as it often is, the early morning coastal haze makes the world dark and a little depressing. I so miss waking to sun streaming through my windows.
Each morning we take a different path, through a dried up river bed with errant cacti, sometimes along the beach, or, as we did this morning across the fields on a nearby farm.
This sunflower brightened my path today, sprouting in the most arid of areas it bloomed and spread a little bit of sunshine. I scrambled up a steep rocky incline and took a picture with my phone cam..

I do love sunflowers. When friends are ill or having a hard time it is the flower I try to give them- they just make you smile.
Also my son and his wife had them decorating the venue for their marriage and the arrangements were so beautiful.
Your mornings may be less than sunny but here in the UK we're just happy to see the sun any time of the day.
Remember one Christmas we spent in California and we were the only people wearing T-shirts - everyone else was wearing coats and sweaters. Guess you aren't used to our cold and wet winters.
