This past weekend on MD-313 just north of Greensboro I found this meadow of Black Eyed Susans. Black-Eyed Susans are perennial daisies or coneflowers, members of the sunflower family. The flower heads measure 2 to 3 inches in diameter with yellow rays circling a dark-brown, spherical center. They bloom between May and August, reaching 2 to 3 feet in height.

The Black-Eyed Susan became in 1918 the official Maryland flower, designated the “Floral Emblem” of Maryland by the General Assembly.

During the next few months I will be working on a Photo-book on Country Roads of the Chesapeake on the Eastern Shore of Maryland.

About Tuesday’s Photo:
I decided to do a 52 week photo project for 2021. One that will have me posting on a photo each Tuesday.

10 years ago near the end of 2011 I began seriously taking photographs and have taken many over these years. Some I never really reviewed. Others I decided weren’t the best of the batch. Some I planned to go back and re-edit, but for unknown reason I never did. This year I plan to review photographs and edit them, or sometimes re-editing as I seem fit.

As I look at them, I may decide to go back to the location and make an attempt at creating a better photograph.
