Tail end of summer, looking through a sunflower...

A stunning capture, sir! You have an eye for the unusual. Excellent focus and DOF.

Thanks! It was just one of those things, walking through the garden and catching the scene...

Good idea, very different from the typical sunflower photos. Really brings some melancholy with it, well done

It is that ability, that eye, that sets the true photographer/artist apart from the picture taker. The combination of yellow and green are not one of my favorites, but after studying your photograph, perhaps I should reconsider.

That's it...the end of summer, it's over, things are dying, the heats fading...

What really drew my eye to this shot, was the how the light got caught in the dying leaves, not quite dead but getting there. How the lines really stood out...it was the golden hour and they called out.
