   As usual Kevin, Excellent. However, tonally this one appears a bit unbalanced, with a predominance of warm tones and yellow. If you are open to post processing, adding a bit of blue to the upper parts of the sky should give a lot of balance. Just my 2 cents.

    I like the vanishing point, just offset enough to make it interesting; well done.

    Thanks for the reminder Kevin. I need to head down to Skagit for a few pictures. I live in Whatcom County!

    Aren’t they pretty.. I was born there, and this year has been unusually cold, the tulip festival is in full swing, but the tulips arent in bloom yet, that is a sight to behold..

    Is it windy or are they just growing that way at the end of the rows.. Skagit county is beautiful… farm and growing country

    This is a lovely shot - I probably would have put the sun to the left or to the right of the image (by habit), but centreing it has worked. How would it look off centre though? We have lots of fields of sunflowers around here - I’ll try a similar shot.
    thanks
