Reaching up for the sky

Down in London visiting my brother and I had to wait for him to arrive back from triathon training, so rather than sit in some busy coffee shop in the hustle and bustle I walked to his block of flats.

It's a lovely secluded area in Wimbledon with private gardens, so I lay in the sun and took pictures of flowers while waiting for him.

These daisys are so small and insignificant, nestled in the grass, but when you look at them closely they seem to be trying their hardest, stretching up as high as they can, to catch the sunlight.

(A young couple with two young children came out to enjoy the sun too and I got chatting to them. Took a really nice picture of their 2 year old son but I don't feel it would be appropriate to put it up here without checking with them first, so flowers it is.)
