For me Sunflowers mean the imminent changing of the seasons. Been trying for years to achieve a decent sunflower shot from the fields near DIA. Finally, I have something worth printing I believe.
Does the horizon look relativelly level? From other postings, many have commented it's tilted. I, for one, am not seeing it too off level.
Nice image. It does appear tilted very slightly to the right but I may not have noticed if you did not mention it. That is one huge filed of sunflowers.

Really good Sunflower shot Ken. Like Andrew said, if you would not have pointed it out I would not have noticed a tilt...very so slightly to the right.
Was this taken in the last few days?

Great shot. I also think it is ever so slightly tilted to the right.

Ken, I could only see the tilt when I scrolled down. Probably a degree or so. Something only pixel peepers would complain about. It was so breezy & hazy from wildfire smoke, I think you got a really good, classic image. When I looked on the vertical axis, at what little of the stems I could see, it looked fine.

Maybe slightly - easy to check.. but the sky color is not exactly level, so the may be what looks best rather than what lines up.
Yep, those were some huge fields near DIA. I did a quick 20 min setup late afternoon on Sunday the 16th on the way to returning a car before flying out Looks like you got them at the right time - and nice density!
