Dandy

Hope I've got the ID right on this flower, it's a few months since I took it but think that's what I thought at the time. There are a few look-alikes though. That path can look really pretty in the spring.

Make a wish!

Although it's a weed, I love how the seeds of dandelions look.

I suppose I could wish for an ice cream

A favorite book from when I was little was "One Morning in Maine". It's about a little girl with a loose tooth. Her parents tell her that when it falls out, she can put it under her pillow and make a wish to the tooth fairy. But one day when she's out with her father digging for clams...

A Gentle Kiss of Sunlight

I happened to look out my window early one morning and saw a sliver of the sun's rays touching the top of this Dandelion. It turned a very common and ordinary flower into something quite beautiful. I grabbed my camera and snapped off a few shots, before the sun disappeared behind the shade of a...

Not given a 2nd glance

If you look around you may find the humble Dandelion in flower. Some (like this one) have massive flower heads on a low stalk with hardly any leaves. It's like the plant knows the mild spell is limited so puts all its energy into the flower and not the plant itself. Beautiful flower, walked...

Dandelions

Huh!! I had an appointment in town... it was beautiful as I drove down - sun roof open, windows down, gosh it was hot. When I came out the sky was black, but I decided to go on my usual river walk. As I crossed the road I heard "chick, chick, chick" and just caught a glimpse of a...

Dandelion Clock

I think dandelions look just as good in the seed phase as when they are in flower.

3D Experiment

Look at the two images at 300mm/1ft start to cross your eyes untill a middle Dandelion appears, now put your hands palms towards face either side of face, move in towards nose (75mm/3"from face) untill only middle image remains - look around image to acclimatize your brain - should be 3D.

Black and White

This is sort of a follow up to my dewy web from yesterday. I used a 300mm lens to isolate this gone to seed dandelion against a dark shadowy area.

A 'Dandy' Pair

A shot taken during a recent visit to the beautiful region of Betws-y-coed, Wales. I was basically experimenting with the cameras versatility. Im guessing the flower/plant is some kind of Dandelion. (Open to someones expert eye for confirmation)
