I associate dandelion seed heads with summer -- but on a recent walk in the woods, there were plenty of dandelions in full bloom, and plenty more already at the seed head stage. I brought one home to photograph, for PG101 "Macro/Close Up" Theme.

Chris - Nice find and capture! I like the details in the lonely seed. HTD! - Mike #11585395Michele Peterson April 20, 2017
Amazing detail, Chris, and I love the red background. I think this is the year of the dandelion in my neck of the woods, they'll be turning to seeds soon! #11585409Chris Budny April 21, 2017 1
Thank you all very much! The red is a glass vase set further behind the propped-up dandelion. #11585442Christine Greenspan April 28, 2017
