Yet more Sunflowers
Here are a couple more Sunflower shots from the evening Richie and I spent up there, we had a great time.
FYI, for any wanting to go and shoot them, they are starting to look a little more rough around the edges, and starting to wilt.

#3 This one is actually from sunrise, hence the more golden hue.

#1 looks like the horizon is a little off but #2 is SWEET!!! :toast:

Thanks Jody, I was using a bubble level on #1, I checked some structures and power poles in the image at 100% and it looks like it is level, field does slope.

No. 2 is awesome!! Beautiful colors in all.

I agree with everyone else, #2 is great! I'd fix the slant in #1 even if it is technically correct.

They are starting to wilt? Darn....and I can't get up there this week. Well, I guess there's next year....
Nick, these are great. I really like # 2. Very nice.

I just uprooted a bunch of sunflowers today--now i feel guilty :frown: :wink:

Out of the three, #2 is a strong contender to be in your final portfolio of sunflower images.
An excellent portrait! The angle of the leaves really helps make this one so terrific.

#2 rocks and 1 and 3 are close behind. Great job.
