Ravi,
This is a lovely image. It is pretty sharp for being handheld! I love shooting flowers at this angle. The clear, interesting stem draws the eye right into the photo. I often use focus stacking in photoshop to make all of the petals in focus on a flower. The petals do show nice texture.

Ravi: I like this POV and your handling of the yellow. Good solid comp and a fine result.>=))>

Reaching upward toward the sun, this image presents the sunflower artistically. It has a soft focus feel that enhances its beauty. Love it!
