[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
This is sunflower from my mother's backyard garden. Cropped like this it reminded me of the sun that children usually draw in the corner of their drawings. I am not quite satisfied with this shot but I would like to hear the second opinion.

Lovely macro here. Great colors and the thin line of yellow in the frame ads a nice effect. Thanks for sharing.

Really interesting macro with a really effective crop and it does look like the sun being drawn by kid. I think it lacks a bit of sharpness in the centre of the flower and that is maybe why you are not completly satisfied with it. The petals are really sharp though and you did well at blurring the background. Well done!

My favroite plant.
^^
Well captured and framed.
Maybe more focus in the middle but on this way also looks very fine.

Hi Branka, I like the way you composed this photo. The close-up really shows the details, and the size of the flower is still visible by suggestion. It still could use some sharpness I think, I would not change the composition! Good work, see you again, Richard
