@johnny canoe Just stick the photos in and have a bit of fun. I never thought I would laugh so much watching the photos here. I could see the child in you lot, especially @Larisa .. Thank you for the laughs.. @Tech I agree it is very tall, so tall that I can't see the flower very well. Please make sure no comrades are hurt in the process of measuring.. or taking photos ..

The tallest sunflower was grown @Tech, just beating out a couple of other sunflowers. Well done!!!

The largest bloom was from @Tjohn's sunflower, just beating a couple of others by a whisker! Good work
As for the most charismatic, would could beat @Larisa's boatswain:
