I watched the sunrise Sunday with the sunflowers at the Gamelands on hwy 226 Rutherford county,NC
Canon XTI,28-135mm.

I really like the sense of depth, Leann. Lots of different "sections" between the foreground and the mountains. And the foreground really sets it up.

Cool Leann, I like it. Too bad the sunflowers were watching the sun too! They always seem to point themselves away from the camera!

Thanks Lance

Alice,
I guess it would be improbable to get a shot with sunflowers not facing the sun huh since they follow it. Hmm could keep the kids busy trying

Wonderful shot, very moody. It looks like your sharing the sunrise with the flowers.

Pretty sweet! The mist in the middle ground is a nice touch.

I like it Leann .Looks very natural .
Did you use a GND filter ?
Thanks
Don

Thanks guys,
Don-No I didn't use a GND. I took a few shots exposing for the sky and then the FG and settled on a setting in between for this. I let the editing brighten the bottom.
