Lets see you on your bike!

Let's see, me on my bike... the photos are a bit of a challenge since I usually ride alone, but hey - I want to play too!

This first shot is an old one, from my cross country trip in 2002. As I was absorbing the amazing scenery in the Grand Tetons, I spent some time talking with another traveler who was also drawn in by the views. We traded cameras so we could each get a picture of ourselves: http://denise.smugmug.com/photos/44146-M-1.jpg

This one was courtesy of reflective glass on a very bright day in June as my bike and I were wandering near home: http://denise.smugmug.com/photos/74793251-M-1.jpg

And this (shadow) self-portrait was taken as I was riding home from work this evening: http://denise.smugmug.com/photos/87129537-M-1.jpg

I love how Denise always seems to have a camera with her - even to and from work.

I've tried for weeks now to remember mine as we have acres and acres of sunflower fields around here. They all are in bloom at the same time the TdF is running. Really gorgeous photo ops. Yawl will just have to imagine it.

Actually, I had a reason for having it with me today. Someone from Halifax, NS posted on crazyguyonabike earlier this week looking for pictures of cycling road signs from around the world. He is working on a fundraiser to get better cycling facilities in Halifax and needs photos. There are a couple of interesting signs here I wanted to get for him.

If anyone has some interesting cycling signs for Peter... here's a link to the discussion: http://www.crazyguyonabike.com/forum...ssage_id=35043

And SadieKate - if you get any photos of the sunflowers, I'd love to see them. I find them fascinating. Here's one in someone's garden that is just starting to open: http://denise.smugmug.com/photos/86328069-M-1.jpg (and yes, of course I had a camera with me when I was wandering on my bike on Sunday!)

Wow, that's beautiful. The fields are all drying now so the colors are muted and even turning brown. The heads are drooping and turned away from the sun. Even the safflower fields are turning to amber. Eh, cameras just don't seem to find their way into my jersey pockets on my road bike.
