Design Challenge - 42 palettes in 42 days | Day 2

It's already Day 2 in my personal design challenge. Today's theme is Sunflower sadness, inspired by the view from my window.

A quick recap: I decided to use the remaining days of the year to challenge myself and come up with one colour palette a day till 1st January, to rapidly improve my colour understanding and start the new year with a new and refined skill! Feel free to join me in the challenge or just follow me along on this journey.

THE RULES:

1. The rules are not super strict but you should try your best to make 42 colour palettes in 42 days.
2. Every palette should consists of 5 different colours. If you really, really want you could include more, but in my opinion 5 is the perfect number, since such a small palette won't take too much of your time, and you'll be able to finish the challenge by putting in just 10-15 minutes a day.
3. Every palette should have one main colour. Strive to choose new and different main colour for every palette. It won't be much of a challenge if you make 42 palettes with only shades of blue, right?
Super hard mode: try to include the colours that you have problems with as often as possible in the palettes - I for example would try to include green, red or brown in most of my palettes since I struggle the most with them.
4. You could either:
- Choose a photo and make a palette based on it;
- Make a palette based on my theme - for Day 1 it's Autumn Trip, and every day the name of the theme would be written on the palette;
- Make your palette based on the photo I chose - think you could do it better? Every day I'm going to link the photo I used, so you could try to make a colour combo based on it.
