Helpful Posts: Taken a few years ago about 40 miles north of Toronto near my late Brother-in-Law's cottage.
When a friend advised me that the commercial Sunflower fields were in full bloom, a small group of my photobuds and I raced up to get some shots.
This is a shot of Robert Z. a good friend and excellent photographer, as he gets artsy among the Sunflowers.

Re: Robert among the Sunflowers
Nice shot!
I have commercial sunflower fields near my home that I promise myself I will shoot but, seem to put off until the flowers are harvested - then it's too late

Been there. Done that. I also missed shooting them one year because I delayed and then they were gone.
On this particular occasion I had a friend who spends his weekends at a cottage call me when the crop was ripe, and we went up literally the next day.
And thank you and John for commenting.
Robert

Re: Robert among the Sunflowers
Sorry...late again in complimenting you fore this shot. Good for you for having friends to shoot with. Would be nice if you brighten up the shot just a bit to focus attention to the flowers more even though Robert was your subject here. Just a thought...
