I like the distortion you get from wide angle perspective and thought it worked well for these sunflowers.
Canon EOS 3, probably 28 mm (maybe 24), sensia, likely hand held.

I like the perspective and the composition. The light is rather harsh giving this too much contrast. A reflector or a bit of fill-flash might have helped here.

The only thing missing from this eye pleasing comp IMO is perhaps a bit of FF.

Cindy, really cool perspective. I agree with harvey a bit of fill would have made the main flowers really pop. Neat shot.

great shot cindy, the wide angle really puts the flowers in your face for nice impact. Like the sky!

Very cool perspective. I need to try some under the flower shots with a 16mm :)
