Second visit to the fields and they are definitely ready now. Went with a bunch of my photo club friends for sunset pics but when we arrived it started raining :-( but only for about 20 minutes :-). While it wasn't a very colorful sunset we all had a good time with the sunflowers and our cameras.
Bring a ladder or step stool if you can. If you have a wide angle lens I would bring it. Long pants boots, bug spray . Think that covers it. Good luck and enjoy!!!! A tall tripod helps but most flowers are about 3-4 feet tall . If my son didn't just arrive from San Francisco and we weren't having the family over I would join you .
