The Weldon Spring Conservation Area is a popular destination for locals and visitors alike, especially during the summer months when the vibrant sunflower fields come into bloom. These fields of golden yellow flowers create a breathtaking spectacle, attracting photographers, nature enthusiasts, and families seeking a picturesque outdoor experience. The sunflowers sway gently in the breeze, creating a mesmerizing display against the backdrop of the Missouri landscape.

I discovered that there were fields of sunflowers within a few miles of the house. Thousands of sunflowers planted in a field at the Weldon Spring Conservation Area. I spent three days photographing the flowers at different times of the day.
