Description
What an absolutely amazing sunset we had here in Denver, Colorado a few nights ago! I will say this, we got a little soaked from the thunderstorm and the rear flank downdraft winds made it quite windy. Obviously not what you want when you're photographing flowers. So ya, there is a little movement in this one but ya take what mother nature gives ya and I walked away a very happy camper! Colorado sure doesn't disappoint during monsoon season!---John.

The GardenWondrous and always patient
the greenery that suddenly emerges
in place of an undying slate
of brown and orange shades.

does that mean graduated neutral density filter??

damn! I need to pick one up. Aren't they basically sunglasses for cameras?

lol not really. I think you might be thinking of Neutral Density filters which are completely sold and used for slowing down exposure speed...often used in photographing waterfalls to give water a very soft look.
A Graduated Neutral Density filter is used to even out the exposure between the sky and the ground. www.luminous-landscape.com/tut…

I saw some sunflowers photos lately but this one is the best. I like how the clouds go with the flowers and the a good angle here

Funny. Kansas is the "sunflower" state and has no mountains. You've got the mountains in your state and while hundreds of tourists are driving past you (towards the mountains, many after passing through Kansas) you're taking pictures of Colorado sunflowers (albeit with mountains in the distance.) Just enjoying the irony.

It makes me so happy to see your photographs, you capture our home state in such a perfect way! Just gotta love that Colorado sunset.
