Boy they are all nice. Couldn't pick a favorite but am partical to the last one in the second row. Looks like an old building out of focus in the background. I like that. Now if you'll excuse me, my pup, Duke, is eating the couch again! Gotta go!!!!!


I pity the man never loved by a dog!

Thank you, Don. That was one of my first shots after entering the field.

Thank you, John. I guess it is one way of showing a lot of images without stringing them out. It was a fun shooting day.

I like this. I even think it would look good framed and hung. Of course I love sunflowers. Neat concept and yes this is how you would capture them - close, far, from the left, from the right, etc. Smile

Thanks, Becky. There must be a limit but I don't know what it would be.

A lot of really nice images and I like the way you put them all together.

This is a wonderful collage of these gorgeous flowers. I love to photograph these beaties as well.

Nothing succeeds like excess, eh? This is a great way to handle those rare (for me) days when you've got so many good shots that you can't choose a winner among them. The only thing missing is the one of the TdF peloton streaking through the field. Well done!

Strange that you should mention TdF peloton crossing the field, Rick. someone mentioned that as wel were rapidly grabbing images. The comment was 'This is almost like being at the peloton".
Thank you for your connection.

Awesome collection. I really like the two overall scenes at the bottom - they help give the series some context. Well done!

Very nice, Wes. This would be a great exercise for all of us to do ... pick a subject and then explore are of the ways we might capture it. Thanks for the inspiration.

And you get down on yourself for not being "creative". Ha!

Such an encouraging thought, April. I guess I just don't know what that "creative" is supposed to feel like.Crying

Thank you.

There's an infinite variety of creativity, and I don't think anyone is ever fully aware of their creativity. You are indeed creative, Wes. You have your own, special vision and style Smile

I do feel your encouragement, TJ but will always have to stop and wonder when it comes to my creativity. Appreciate the thought.
