Ta,

A bit more info would help as would a better pic.
Looks as if you are in OZ, was the picture taken there?

It looks like Coreopsis tinctoria, a not uncommon constituent of wild
flower mixes, but native to North America.

The foliage is indistinct in the photograph but the blooms look
similar to a form of chrysanthemum that I've seen online advertised as
something called "crazy daisies".

Agreeing with Davie that location and also date of photo would be
helpful as would be one showing the foliage a bit more clearly.
