Every year the folks over at the Agricenter near Shelby Farms plant this amazing field of sun flowers. For sure a photo stop if you are in town.

I took this around 6 pm, trying to get some golden hour effect, but with the sun going down just behind the flowers, using off camera flash was the best approach to get these shots.

I put the Yongnuo YN-560 on a light mount, and played with the power setting. I found that about 1/16 was the perfect setting to help captured the right light. Used the 70-200 2.8 on a few so I was able to get some nice compression photosm also I set the ISO to 200 and closed the aperture as much as I could to help deflect some of the sun light.

Hope you enjoy this... now that High school Football season is near us, my blogging might slowdown, but until next time; here are some Sunflowers.
