 Considered by many as a sign of good luck and prosperity, sunflowers grow in plenty around where i live. I really don't know about the luck but they do give out a feeling of calmness and serenity which are needed for a good life.

Well a hurried last moment entry as always!

I'm not sure this reflects the challenge theme, per say. but I think the comp would benefit from a tighter crop and a slightly longer exposure.

I'd vote it higher in 'Unlucky'. A sunflower without some sun doesn't have much.

Nice shot. I wish that there was a ray of light hitting or highlighting the sun flower.
