Badlands Sunflower, Which Way is the Sun?

.
Believe this is a sunflower.  That said, so many plants out west that are similar to those I am used to seeing in the east have different names.

Photographed at Badlands National Park, 91 degrees, July 7, 2011.

I thought it was interesting how the heads of the flower were looking in two different directions, our sunflowers tend to look to the sun, east in the morning, always.  No, I have NO idea which direction these beauties were looking.  So much sun, I guess they can look any ole way and find what they seek.
