Location
This photo was taken at my birth home in North Dakota. Where there are fields of sunflowers that eventually will be harvested.Time
Sunflower "heads" follow the path of the sun throughout the day. This one is facing east so it's morning. it's pretty awesome to watch a whole field of sunflowers move across the sky during the day.Lighting
Because sunflowers follow the sun getting the lighting just right is much easier because you have good lighting throughout the entire day when the sun is shining.Equipment
This was shot with my Sony 300a. Hand held. I like a challenge.Inspiration
Sunflowers are simply beautiful. And when you have the large ones, as captured in this picture, the details even more beautiful. The fact that there is nutrition from the seeds for both birds and humans is an added inspiration.Editing
Sunflowers are such a vivid color there was very little post-processing done. Simply a bit of highlighting.In my camera bag
Well I thoroughly enjoy landscape photography another passion of mine is macro. As well as black and white. So I have everything from a wide angle to telephoto, etcFeedback
Contrast. Always look for the best natural contrast. Nature does the rest.
