Sunflowers are great. They have large blooms, a nice shape and lots of detail. I love sunflowers. However, this picture highlights another aspect of sunflowers. Their spikey hairiness. I highlighted this using a very thin depth of field. For this you need to get as close as possible with as wide an aperture as possible. When you do this you have a very tiny amount of the image that is in focus. You can highlight with focus, lighting or framing.
