Color Splash On White [Sunflower Pictures]
Uploaded: February 05, 2012 07:05:10
Talk about a photo op; imagine my delight finding this colorful silo painted with sunflowers surrounded by a blanket of white after a recent Colorado snowstorm. Even though the undercarriage on my car was a muddy mess from that country dirt road, the color and capture made it all so worth it.
