Believe it or not, I’ve seen a few dandelions in the park last week, but their days are numbered. At least for this year. I used to dig these up when I saw them and I still do, but I wait until after the flowers are gone. If you look hard enough, you might find that perfect one waiting to be photographed.
Great, beautiful, perfect Dandelion head. Actually, that sounds like I’m calling you Dandelion Head. You know what I mean! That’s also a handsome butterfly. After trying my hand at photographing stationary ladybugs, I know this type of thing takes a lot of skill. Well done sir.
Thanks, Charles, I think. Actually, I’ve been called worse. A lot worse. The butterfly was actually an easy shot with the macro. He was trained to pose for photos so it was a no brainer.
Very nice shot of the dandelion. Great depth of field. The butterfly looks nearly done.
Thanks, ehpem. The dandelion was shot with the trusty macro lens. I can’t complain about after market lenses.
I think Charles is calling you Dandelion head! I’ll agree though, that’s a great image, Ken.
Thanks, John. I think I might like being the head dandelion.
Beautiful images. I hate to see summer go though!
Thanks, Howard. I know what you mean but autumn is really my favorite time of year.
That’s a perfect ‘clock’. These are not easy – I’ve taken a few in my time and this really is a good one. Well shot, Ken.
My goodness these images, both of them, knocked me out. Wow.
Thanks, Chris. I had a lot of fun with these, especially the butterfly.
Wonderful clarity – beautiful nature images and I especially like the symmetry of the dandelion.
Thanks, Jane. I had a lot of rejects shooting this dandelion. Fortunately, one was all I was looking for.
Hey, Dandelion Head! Nice shots. 🙂 There are no dandelions around our neck of the woods at this time of year, or none that I’ve seen. I am, however, noticing a few leaves that have started changing colors. Soon, the Floridians will invade the western part of our state, leef-peeping.
Thanks, Paul. We’re seein a slight change in color too, and some of the leaves are starting to fall. The best time of year is here!
