OK-- not an overly interesting photo-- but I really enjoy the lighting, color and crispness of the photo.

    Nice colors
    I think you can position them even better and angle of shooting can be improved just my opinion :D

    I think it would look good if it were just the red flower. I like how the fuzzy texture looks on the bottom of it.

    I like the colours too David, but as you said the image itself is not all that interesting....... did you shoot it from the front or the side at all ???

    Thanks SKippy-- and yes, I did shoot it from the front and side! I should mention this poor thing and its fellow flowers went through an awful storm just before getting their pictures taken. Notice the torn petal.

    No no, I agree-- I was just intrigued with the excellent color and clarity of the shot. These red sunflowers are a sight to behold.:cry

    Hi, davidryan
    Great photo!
    I like the front view the best.
    This is the first red sunflower that I have ever seen.

    Take Care,
