Martin M. Miles' photos with the keyword: New South Wales

Sydney, Harbour Bridge, Australia. Ca. 1981

An hour later in the boiling heat, after having bowed back to dozends of greeting sunflowers, after two ostriches, a grinning Llama and a munching tree - I saw this sunflower. This sunflower unmistakeably displays the letters U, K and I, what reads "uki". This sunflower obviously knew me!! I knew this word! How could the gargantuan swarm intelligence of the whole field lead to this? This was more than just weird. I was totally puzzled. Uki is not only a place in New South Wales, that I had visited decades ago, but -more important to me- is a maori-word, used in the polynesian dialect spoken in the Cook-Islands. How could this sunflower know? I poured a bottle of lukewarm water over my head, looked to the flower again - and took this photo.
