Wildflowers of Italy: Urospermum dalechampii (smooth golden fleece), Etruscan necropolis of Castel d'Asso
outside Viterbo
June 2023
This image appears somewhat weird because it was taken in 'Portrait' mode on the Pixel phone, meaning that the phone is computing what depth of field is optimum for the way a "portrait" should look according to some algorithm, and while the background is actually there in the capture, if it is outside the computed optimal DoF, the phone blurs it into near invisibility. Computational photography.
