This was the only sunflower in my garden. I could never get rid of the insects. So here it is, insects and all.

Re: Sunflower
This really is very good and I like it a lot. It has a "Graphic" quality that could do well as an advert.
Can you tell us more about how you went about getting it to look like this?

Re: Sunflower
I agree with Graham - very much poster art with that nicely positioned insect on the petal.
The insect actually in the flower only detracts a little.
Nice crop/composition.

Hi Malcolm,
Lovely shot so crisp and clean.
The insects add reality for me.

Re: Sunflower
That's beautiful.
The picture is so bright and light, summery, and so clear too.
I like the crop too, and I think having the flies makes it a bit unusualComment

The small dot on one of the lower petals is the only think that detracts my eye

Re: Sunflower
Another sunflower shot - it's been done sooooo many times before
But wait a minute - this one is different! Great composition , yes - but what I think really does it is the dreamy, high key look of the petals against the white background.
Someone mentioned an advert. Yes, I can visualize it used with this sort of thing......
Only the flakiest, crumbliest chocolate...... tastes like chocolate never tasted before.
Anyone else remember that? Or am I the only chocoholic?
