Sunflowers At Twilight
There’s something a little spooky about being out in a sunflower field after sunset.
As much as I enjoy being outside and enjoying nature, there’s something about the oncoming night that puts me a little on edge.
This particular night, the moon began to rise in the east just as the sun was setting in the west.
It was as if the moon had been waiting to take its turn at ruling the sky.

Beautiful pictures with muted colors, and crowds of sunflowers watching the moon rise.
Thank you Vivian!
Love, love, love these photos! Great perspective, thanks for sharing this view. The moon looks so beautiful!
Thank you Bonnie!
what’s even freakier is that the are all facing the same way….a little “golden calf” looking…..
Hi Rebecca,
It’s like some sort of moon worship thing.
Once again I have to compliment your picture taking. These are beautiful shots. They seem to cature my mood perfectly lately. You have such a talent!
Thank you Shonneky!
Wonderful pictures. What kind of camera do you use? I am shopping for one.
Hi Kristi,
Most of the pics on my blog are with a Canon G9. The last couple weeks have been with a Canon EOS 50D.
Thank you for stopping by!
Gorgeous pictures!
Thank you, Renee!
All of them with their heads bent, it does seem as if they are worshipping the moon. Any moment they may break into a worship dance. So eerie.
Hi Shailaja,
It was kinda spooky that night. I felt outnumbered. 🙂
Beautiful flowers! I enjoyed reading your blog today. It was my first visit. Your photos are beautiful. Kansas is beautiful. Looking forward to stopping by again.
Hi Jodie,
Welcome! Thank you for visiting, and do come back soon.
I love your photos!!! So inspiring! Thank you for sharing. May I ask what camera you use and what lenses you use? I have a Canon T2i dslr and want to purchase another lens. I only have the kit lens 18-55mm. I would love your opinion on your favorite. Thank you for your time!!
Hi Diana,
Well, it kinda depends on what you want to photograph. Are you looking to take pics close up and also scenery? Wide angle a possibility? A little of everything? Just let me know, and I’ll be glad to help. I’ve been using a Canon EOS 50D for a last couple weeks, and before that I used a Canon G9.
Thank you for visiting!
Wow!! I can’t stand it. I wish I was there to see that beautiful site. You do live in a slice of heaven. You are now my number one blog!
Thank you Peggy!
Fantastic!
Thank you Granny!
Love photo 2 – they look like they are all lined up and ready to dance the CanCan. LOL
Hi Doe,
I hadn’t thought of that, but you’re right! Tee hee.
beautiful pictures!
but i agree, those sunflowers sure are spooky, kinda like an army, and all facing the same direction…? gives me the creeps!
(too many horror movies maybe? ha ha ! )
Hi Jardineralinda,
Thank you. They all face east when they bloom for some reason. It does look creep though.
My gosh, they are so big! I don’t get to see much stuff like that around here. It’s beautiful.
Hi Michelle,
Thank you!
Wow, those sunflower photos are amazing. This is my first visit to your corner of blog land. I”ll be back when I can spend more time. Great photos!!!
Thank you Sharon.
Y’all come back now, ya hear? (I had to say it 🙂
Wonderful photo’s. It brings back memories of August and September of 1992, which I spent working in eastern Kansas. Thanks for sharing.
Hi Tom,
I’m glad you enjoyed these. I posted more sunflowers photos today.
