Terrific perspective and dof on this. While there were probably many options for snapping this scene, I think you picked an excellent one with the dof telling us that there is indeed a whole field of these golden beauties. Those three in front could be world leaders addressing the masses. Let's hope the masses aren't listening.

Very nice shot of the sunflowers "from behind". Unusual perspective but it looks lovely.

A great shot! The backs of the sunflowers and the blur of the background are just perfect.

A unique photo. Wonderfully taken. Two 'shy' sunflowers look great. Great use of DOF and very nicely chosen background. Very well done, my friend.

Wonder shot LE. I love the clarity in the foreground and the blur in the background. The colors are so lively and cheerful. Good post.

This is a very nice sunflower photo in that it has good balance. Balance between the focus of the background and foreground and the balance of color between the yellow and green. The majority of sunflower photos I see are of the front, showing the seed head and ring of petals, but so much yellow is reflected back to the viewer that it often bleeds into everything else in the photo, tinting everything slightly yellow. We all know what the front of a sunflower looks like because of the myriad photos of them we've seen but here you're allowing us to see more, to see the nature of the support system of those large heads full of seeds and oil. Shooting them in subdued light is also a good idea because they reflect so much color in bright sun. A nice piece, Lyn.

I commend you in taking this image with the blooms facing away. Different but effective visually.

This is so different in so many ways. I love the way your mind was working on this one. Back of the flowers not the front. Endless fields of bokeh. Like being in the back row of a flower concert :)
