Yeah!!! I like light shining through petals and leaves. And I also have some photos I've shot from behind the flower and some people have said "why did you take the picture from the back?"...Another reason I am thankful I found this site....I really like the way the sepals came out (is that right? the bud leaves?) Plus, my father used to plant sunflowers...Beautiful photo...
Thanks, Henry.
Stunning image Willie.The detail in the flower mixed with the surreal background of the lighter areas shining down on the flower is Never a bad image i will see from you (unless it's intentional).Thanks for sharing...Ron
Thank you very much for the compliment, Ron.
Salamat, AL.
Nice use of backlighting willie. I like the unusual angle as well.
Jiro, I wsh I had your talent.... Both in Photography and PP.
I haven't seen any sunflowers yet in my part of Texas - but then again, it's so hot and dry that even the weeds in my yard are dying-

One thing that I can honestly tell you, Kris is that this kind of talent can be learned and developed. I am very glad that I can share whatever I have with you all here at CiC as much as I can and until I can.
It does tell a pleasant story of a summery evening! The back of the sunflower being almost, basically, silhouetted like that makes it almost look like it is a little sun looking back - very lovely!
Thanks for dropping by, Katy.
Very nice!
It has the a nice coloured backround and object itself displays beautifuly...
Thanks a lot, jappe.
WOW!
Another awesome from you, Jiro.
Love the details & bokeh in this.
Many Thanks, Sahil. I was actually surprised by the bokeh at this setting on this lens. I might explore this kind of shots further.
