p.1 #1 · p.1 #1 · Sunflower fields

Went to a beautiful sunflower field this week. It was in full bloom and attracted hordes of photographers - pros with clients, hobbyists and iPhones were everywhere. I was glad that I got there early and was leaving as the crowds were coming in! I recently switched from Nikon to Fuji XT2 and these were all taken with the Fuji 60mm macro.

We named this first one Muhammed Ali:

iPhone panorama so you can see the size of the field. I think that black dot was a drone.

Nice work with the yellows Sharon! I've often wanted to leave the camera in one position and record the following of the flowers to the path of the sun in a day's time.

Beautiful set Sharon. The next to the last may be a touch overexposed. I love your use of shape and texture

Thank you! It's in Newbury, MA at Colby Farm. It's a working farm and farm stand. Not many flower fields in MA so it's pretty popular for the one week that it's in full bloom. They have a Facebook page. I originally heard about it through my local photo group on meetup.
