Hi all
I'm finally getting round to sorting through all my photos from my recent trip to France. I was desperate to shoot some sunflowers, but had no idea how! So I took them with a variety of different lenses at a variety of different angles as an experiment
I've plonked the photos onto a template for Flickr, I hope it's not too offensive! Any feedback is greatly appreciated!
Thanks
Many thanks _________________ Graham - Moderator

Wow, thanks for the lovely comments everyone! I was really at a loss as to how to photograph those beautiful sunflowers, but it was fun! I think part of the problem is their height, making it difficult to get a well proportioned shot.
Point noted about the template, I've now toned it down a bit, thanks! _________________ Graham - Moderator
