A beautiful presentation with great colors and nice separation from the background. I like the leaves and bud in the foreground. Good luck in the contest.

I new it was a sunflower, but not an Enormous one! 😉❤
So how tall are we talking? Is it one of yours?
I love daisies and sunflowers cause they always seem to fill any room or area with sunshine and smiles.
Love the sweet DOF, fab focus and clarity and great placement within the frame.
Your flower captures really SHINE.
Socks off C~M! ⭐😀⭐😀⭐😀❤

At least 2 meters high. Hence the angle of the shot. It is not one of mine. This one was growing outside a super marked in Greece. Thanks a lot for the lovely review.

A very unique sunflower. Great colour and lighting. Superb focus and DOF. Great bokeh. Great composition and framing. Awesome POV. Amazing image. Great job.

Bright and beautiful. Love the vivid, authentic colors, and the clarity of texture of the bloom. Very sharp, showing the veins of the leaves vividly. The natural background is always nature's best. Focus, lighting, angle and technical expertise, high five. A great entry.

Comment from Dick Lee Shia
Yes, I can tell by its leaves!
A lonely drooping bloom perhaps too tired to support its enormous head!
Nice narrow DOF.
Bright lighting.
Aesthetic framing.
Thanks for sharing.
