Sunflowers

One thing I did not expect to find on the way to Sun Valley was sunflowers. The drive from Boise to Sun Valley is mostly high desert mountains with the prairies in between.

The clouds were spectacular yesterday. North of where I camped there were many thunderheads rolling through and at night I could see the lightning light up the sky. Below is the photograph I had stopped to take. It’s a panoramic stitched photograph of 10 separate photos. The photo is of the Sawtooth Range, specifically the range surrounding Sheep Point and Smoky Dome (the taller mountains in the distance). Afterwards I took my dogs and rode down the gravel road on my bike. Well low and behold I found sunflowers!
