Photographer's Note

Sunflower (Helianthus annuus) is an annual plant native to the Americas that possess a large inflorescence (flowering head). The sunflower got its name from its huge fiery blooms, whose shape and image is often used to depict the sun. The sunflower has a rough, hairy stem, broad, coarsely toothed, rough leaves and circular heads of flowers. The heads consist of 1,000-2,000 individual flowers joined together by a receptacle base.
Sunflower seeds were taken to Europe in the 16th century where, along with sunflower oil, they became a widespread cooking ingredient. Sunflower leaves can be used as a cattle food, while the stems contain a fibre which may be used in paper production.

Bonjour mon ami,
ce ce qu'on appelle un bol de couleurs, on voit rarement de telle teintes aussi vives aussi prenantes aussi sympathiques pour l'oeil.
Jaune et bleu se marient tellement bien.
Un paln rapproché d'une très haute qualité technique.
Mes compliments.
Daniel.
