Thanks to Trixie who suggested the name of this flower: Yellow Cosmos... I took the liberty to title the shot Yellow World.... I know it is orange... it's name is yellow...
From WIKIPEDIA:
Cosmos sulphureus is also known as Sulfur Cosmos and Yellow Cosmos. Its native habitat is Central America.
This species of Cosmos is considered a half-hardy annual, although plants may re-appear via self-sowing for several years. Its foliage is opposite and pinnately divided. The plant height varies from one to seven feet. The original and its cultivars appear in shades of yellow, orange, and red. It is especially popular in Korea and Japan, where it is often seen in mass plantings along roadsides (see Woo Jang-choon).

***************
▶ "Cosmos sulphureus is a species of annual flowering plant—known as sulfur cosmos and yellow cosmos— in the sunflower family, Asteraceae. It is native to Mexico, Central America, and northern South America, but naturalized in other parts of North and South America (and Korea and Japan).
The foliage of Cosmos sulphureus is opposite and pinnately divided [feather-like]. Its flowers —yellow, orange, or red— are produced in a capitulum [flower-head containing multiple blossoms] with a ring of broad ray florets and a center of disc florets, blooming spring through autumn. The plant height varies from 1 to 7 feet (30–210 cm). Although an annual, Cosmos sulphureus can re-seed itself.
In 1996, the Southeast Exotic Pest Plant Council declared cosmos sulphureus to be invasive in the southeastern U.S. "

Full-sun lighting conditions were harsh at times in the Chicago Botanic Garden, but occasionally, when clouds obscured the sun, I’d take the opportunity to capture soft flower portraits, as in this Cosmos Sulphureus surrounded by tiny white flowers that I used to demonstrate shooting through techniques to create a soft bokeh.

Cosmos belongs to the family Asteraceae, a broad family of flowering plants that includes more than 20,000 species. There are 20 species of cosmos, including the North America native Cosmos sulphureus and the popular garden flower Cosmos bipinnatus. Also known as Mexican aster, common cosmos plants will grow as an annual plant in all regions.
Many cosmos flowers sport lacy foliage similar to ferns or asparagus that is beautiful in its own right. Petals of single varieties surround a small yellow pollen disk with a simple ray form; double varieties may resemble little carnations. A wide range of color options is available, including all hues of pink, red, yellow, and orange. White and picotee colors are also available.
