Photo of sunflower in it's absolute prime, taken at the very top of a hill to allow a straight on shot while using the wispy clouds and blue sky as a frame / background and dark brown seeds as a foreground..
The fluffy golden yellow petals appear to be on a different plane between the clouds/sky background and seeds foreground. causing somewhat of a 3D like effect.
This picture got me thinking very differently about photography. So many intangibles and while it was taken with a now very old iphone4 with basically just cropping done it will likely always be one of if not the best photo I ever take.

Thank you Hilda. I appreciate your encouragement. This was a really special picture , have always been a technician (science vs. art, was a software developer for years) but this was the first picture were the artistic composition was more important then the technical, Was taken with old iphone but still decent pic.
