    Thanks! Not sure about the horizon, the camera was leveled but terrain was kind of uneven with a slope towards the right. I will take another look.

    I think it is ok, just mind playing tricks on me. When horizon is uneven like that, you lift one side and the other side looks tilted! Love the back-lit flowers in first shot!

    I think I might bring up the sunflowers in the bottom one by 1/3 of a stop or so. I'd like to see them *just* a bit brighter, with perhaps a wee bit of blow in the petals.

    Thank you! I will have to try your suggestion when I have some time.

    Nice work. Number 1 is my favorite. Buttonwood is a great place to shoot.

    These are wonderful! Just out of curiosity, did you crop the first image at all? That's my favorite of the three you posted, it's a stellar beauty. What's the little structure in the background to the right?

    Thank you! I cropped some from the botton part of the first one and a tiny bit from the top while trying to level the horizon. That structure looks like some kind of shade, but I didn't pay any attention to to it while there, so I can't be 100% sure.

    The first 2 are great shots very nice. The third shot from my experience is that when the sun goes down, the sky and the earth can sometimes take on an opposing contrast to each other. Setting them apart. They start to stand out more individually than when being lit by the sun. I often shoot at dawn and dusk. I witness this often at times, but when its all well lit the sun is just right amazing details appear! All the best!
