Is this better?

Thanks Mike

Thanks vicksart!

Thanks angler

Thanks photophile, another glorious creation wow.

Thanks Marty, they remind me of our trip to Sedona, Arizona and the way hundreds of people stopped to watch and photograph the sunset. This was a similar experience.

Thanks g, much appreciated.

Guess my art teacher was right. The sun really is that bright. I've looked at it. I had taken lots of shots without the sun but this one because of the sun's brightness really begged to be used. Will try that next year.

Glad you enjoyed! They always catch my eye.

Thanks much mizzie

When the sunflowers blossomed they soon became a local attraction. Traffic jams and near accidents made the scene pretty exciting. I shot some pics at the beginning of the day one morning last week and thinking I had gotten the job done was satisfied that I got a sense of this phenomena. My wife(much smarter than I) said we should go back at the end of the day. One of my art teachers in elementary school mentioned that one should never put the sun in the picture, but combining my wife's advice and disregarding the lesson of the art teacher I came up with the second pic which captures the flavor of the hot dry summer we've been having.

Gorgeous
