Choosing a flower


So I've decided on the flower brief, now the first problem I have is to find a flower I'd like to document.

Problem is I've not much experiences with flora as of date and I'd like to work on something I have some emotional attachment to. This being a rather sentimental project and I don't suppose I'd like something when I google "endangered flowers on Earth"?

A sunflower I tried growing

The first flower I've ever received in my life was a sunflower, given by my friends for their support in my performance in an orchestra concert. The first flower I ever tried to grow myself seriously was also a sunflower, the seedling given as a gift from a teacher. If there's any flower that I ought to feel something for, it would be the sunflower then. It's also my horoscope flower, being a leo. That's as much feelings I think I have for a flower for now.

What about other flowers I've come across, like roses? I like those too, because they have thorns, which sort of makes the flower seem more precious? It stands for romance and love too. Doesn't every girl like roses? I've also asked around people which are their favourite flowers and the most votes appear to go to tulips, for their simple and elegant look.

Hmm, think I'll stick with the sunflower.
