Late Stage Dandelions

If you flipped this one over you could rename it as "Fido" or "Spot". I like it in b&w, my kind of flower.

Thanks for noticing, Shawn! This caught my eye this morning. I'd mounted the super-zoom in preparation for Clara's afternoon lacrosse game and didn't have time to go back to the house and swap to the macro so it's lacking a bit in sharpness but it caught the essence I was after.

Comments welcomed.

It's gorgeous!

Thanks so much, Kim! It was a interesting diversion after a fairly intense (by my standards) focus on more colorful flowers.

 

Thanks also for provoking a brief visit to your portfolio where I found the exquisite "Wind and Shadows."

when i first saw the thumbnail, I thought it was a b&w of fireworks. very cool. I like it.

Thanks, Caleb--glad you liked it!

Strong take on a flower photo! I do like where I can see a little of the background because it provides a sense of depth. They sure are sharp looking.

Appreciate the comment, Fred--especially confirmation that the hints of background serves a purpose.

Beautiful and very interesting composition in B / W . Dan
