Bright rounded faces searching for the sun. A large field of sunflowers bask in the early morning light. Bees are busy going about their daily business.

Sorry for the corny title. My first WA submission. C&C welcome. Thanks for looking.

Really love the bright cheerful colours and detail you've captured in the main flower. Nice framing too, good job!

Great subject and composition! (I do wish there was a bit more brightness and tonal contrast to help everything pop even more.. seems a tad dark here?).

I love sunflowers bathed in the warm light of late afternoon when the sun hangs low in the sky.

Great first submission MP. Real nice comp. I agree with Bev to a degree, feels a tad muted. If you can bring it out a little without loosing the atmosphere (the feel) go for it.

Thank you to all for the comments and positive feedback. Per suggestions from Beverly and Mike, I have brightened the image slightly. Great group of people here, and very talented as well. Thank you again and keep the comments coming.

I think it's perfect ... I love the slightly darker feel to the cheery subject. Wonderful lighting and really great composition/perspective on an oft-photographed subject. You make it original.
