A sunflower in full sun with some veil clouds in the background. I found this during our tour of Ireland. Yet it is not just a vacation snapshot. Because of the low viewpoint, the flower stands free in space and the colors against the blue sky form a nice contrast.

In my nature photos I try to capture the feeling I had at that moment. In this case, the sunflower gives me a summer and vacation feeling.

This picture can create a relaxing feeling in any interior, and its colors make it an instant eye-catcher in both colorful and more gray/black surroundings.
