Dandelions

We are back to our usual routine of having breakfast outside watching the grass grow, the mountains in the distance, the clouds playing shape shifting games, and this morning the breeze tossing dandelion fluff about. I adore dandelions and have a huge admiration for the seed dispersal strategy; it's brilliant and beautiful. And next years crop should be magnificent.

  1. OMG!!! Absolutely stunning shots. Need to show my daughters as the humble dandelion is their favorite flower. Any chance of buying either of these shots?

  2. Your capture of these amazing 'weeds' renders me thoughtful. I love the distribution strategy, too, the tiny parachute of fluff which can transport the promise of new life dandelions far and wide!
