I'm in one of those slumps, and am having trouble motivating myself to get out. The work here has been over the top, and I apologize for my lack of participation.
D70s, 70-300 @ 70, ISO200, F4 @ 1/125, tripod.
C&C always sought.
Thanks
Bob

I would think images like this one would provide the necessary motivation. Really like the orange against the blue BG. The sunflowers are perfect.

Shooting against the blue sky always gives Sunflower shots an artistic look, Robert :cool: . Both blooms are in great shape and your choice of aperture brings both of them into great focus.

No apologies necessary Robert. I'm feeling the same way myself.

I like your composition here and the gradient in the bg. Good dof as well.

Lovely comp and set of colors. Those sunflowers are in amazing shape for this late in the season. You must have spent some time finding the perfect pair.

Bob:
We all go through phases like this. It will pass.

This sunflower image is just gorgeous. Wouldn't change a thing.
