When your horse follows you without being asked, when he rubs his head on yours, and when you look at him and feel a tingle down your spine, you know you are loved.

One day my friend sends me a picture while she was horseback riding with a beautiful oasis full of sunflowers in the middle of a wheat crop field. So we plotted our next photoshoot again.

We went through what to wear and what colours, we packed the clothing and the gear, and we headed to the oasis.

From afar, the spot looked nice, but the closer we got then more sceptical I got. I asked her: “Nina, where are all the sunflowers?” She looked and answered with a tint of sadness in her voice “People picked many of them…”

So we were left with I guess something around 6-7 sunflowers, which because of the drought also got somewhat lazy and not turned towards the sun.

Nonetheless, look at these fantastic photos! The orange sun rays kissed Sini and Nina and the flowers creating this amazing light that I was able to capture with my camera.

Enjoy the sunflowers, but don’t pick them ;-).
