Description
Sunflowers....quite a field I have to say, shot with my partners in crime *daskibum and *Glitch-Chaos outside of Longmont, Colorado...and sometimes things just all come together. Thankfully the slight breeze decided to calm for a second letting me take this almost 1 second exposure. Have to love the late evening thunderstorm in Colorado! If you look close, you will see the rain falling over the RockiesSony a550

i must say, i did a double take. i saw the sky and thought it was just a beautiful picture of a sunset, like all the others out there. but then i looked again for a split second, and wow. the sunflowers. this is gonna sound cheesy (majorly) but this photo is kind of life-changing.

This is by far the most impressive sunflower photo I have seen in a long time. That sunset light on those storm clouds is to-die-for.

Not really off I-25, but south of 119 tucked back some, you can't see it all from the highway

went to this page, more than once to see this image and just got that DA grey page with no image.
👍: 0 ⏩: 2
that is odd, no idea why that would happen, other than DA is being emo again, you can see it on redbubble, too, where there seems to be no issue at all (go figure) [link]
