As summer wanes the late flowers come out to play.

I utilized my iPhone, iPad, and creative cropping to create this beautiful photograph of a field of sunflowers from Cuba, NY.

iPad App XnShape

I utilized the iPad App XnShape to modify a photograph creating this artistic, abstract, blurred effect.  I believe it turned out quite well.
