Beautiful light in the sky and it complements the daisies very nicely.

I like the drama of this scene from the sky. Certainly fits the challenge very well.

I like how even the daisies seem to be watching the beautiful but also potentially threatening sky. Great detail in the daisies and interesting POV of them from the back. Adds to the storytelling feel of this photo. Nice find for this theme, Robert.

Rarely have seen a BG like this for a floral image. I really like it.

Love this Robert. Such a dramatic background that the daisies have turned to have a look.
