sunshine on a cloudy day

Since I'm still trying to be in denial of the impending winter (and possible snow today) here is some sunshine to brighten things up!
These are actually wild sunflowers used to fit a more natural, outdoors, wildflower feeling wedding.  It cut costs immensely, but a few cautions:

1. the selection of flowers is limited by the time of year
2. they have quite sticky sap, so the stems need to be mostly or completely covered with ribbon or floral tape or something unless you want to be sticky

But it did make for some fun bouquets and arrangements.
