Thank you Cassie!
Sometimes we just need to stop and look at the dandelions... :) #5778001

The way you set the background, and its color, makes the stem and puffball shine. I'm going to be afraid to use "weed and feed" in my yard now. #5813564

LOL, hey maybe I can use that logic with my wife and OUR yard work... :)

Thanks much Robert; your witty comments are always welcome! #5835469

Lovely image of a nasty weed! I like how the dandelion bends into the image!
Great dof to compliment this pretty weed, it reminds me of my own hair (white)! :-) #5884431
