    Good Day Sunshine

    Sunflower decided to spring up spontaneously in our garden. Never planted sunflowers, none of our neighbors ever planted sunflowers. It was so pretty though we didn't mind.



    Can't really decide if I like this shot or not.

    The yellow in this is intense. The focus is right where it needs to be as well. The back ground is pretty good as it is, but a bit darker would enhance the luminosity even more. The blurred stuff in front is mostly ok, but it adds a bit of messiness.

    I like the color, it's got great perspective and the focus/bokeh are good. I would clean up that smudge of a dust spec between petals two and three from the top, it's the only distraction I can spot. Lovely image Cara.

    Love the colors and most of all, a not so usual perspective. It's an angle I don't see often.
    I like it.

    I see a lot of sunflower shots but I really like the angle you used here and the focal point is spot on. Good work!
