Hello, Valentinos,
Sunflowers have always been photogenic!Their cheerful brightly coloured heads contrast well with the gloomy sky.
I like the presentation.

The sky is wonderful and very dramatic,the "game" with the hundreds of sun flowers below and the sky without sun at all is very successful.

Οσον αφορά την Ε-3 είμαι πολύ ευχαριστημένος και κυρίως με την σπατή οθονούλα της που μπορώ και βγάζω με τον υπευρυγώνιο φωτογραφίες που αλλίως δε γινότανε.

Hi Valentinos,
the contrast of blue (2/3) and yellow (1/3) is the thing that makes this one a beauty.
Presented perfectly.
Cheers Chris

Hi Valentinos!
Interesting the effect created using the blue gradient filter!
Focusing on sunflowers was a good idea for emphasizing the main subject. Beautiful view of Planet Earth and Sky!
It was a pleasure to see your image!

Best regards,
Athanasios.

Trully impressive photo, with an excellent, very clever title! Flawless composition and framing, beautiful, very vivid colours, despite the breathtaking and heavily cloudy sky! Congratulations!

Oh it's so beautiful, Valentino. I have still been waiting (im)patiently to have sunflowers photo opportunity, I love them!
Good that you used a polarizer here, the strong blue upper part complements nicely the yellow beauties below. I love summer, but not in Athens :/
