Photographer’s Note
Althought they looked like a huge army, sun soldiers formed in a raw; these sunflowers offered a nice view, impossible to resist.
I am glad I can still find beauty in small things. It is a very good feeling. Very rewarding.
Going to the countryside is so nice!
Sorry if I did not respond your mails, I was away.

Levels adjustment, USM, white frame, downsizing to TE standards.
Light was very low at that time, near to sunset.
Hope you enjoy TErs. Have a nice day!
Again posted from my notebook, I never know the final results till I get home, the LCD screen is not one of the bests.

Nice picture Cesar, The color is excellent, I like the idea of showing only 25% of the Sunflower from the top right. In the left side the blur area have Water Color Effect. Excellent.

Hola Cesar!
I agree with you, who can resist to these flowers!? ;)
The DOF, the colors, the fact that you placed the flower in the top right corner... everything is perfect! Well done!
Take care,
Susana

Nice one, Kike - so simple at first sight, but so well seen and photographically executed. The shallow DOF (one of the shallowest - if that's a word - I have seen on TE) works really well, giving just an impressionist rendition of the array of sunflowers extending towards the back. I like it.

Hi Cesar.
Excelent use of this 50mm.
The effect of the exposure is really good and I like your original and perfect framing.
A good idea and realization.
