That is a 'dandy' photo - love the narrow depth of field.
These are pretty critters, but I don't enjoy them growing in my grass ;-)
richard standley: Many thanks Kevin. They are grass ennemies aren't they?
Full frame, very nice, pure and simple shot.
richard standley: Many thanks Daroru.
Good shot here Richard. The Dandelions are just starting in this area of Massachusetts.
richard standley: Thank you Tom.
Excellent shot. Dandelions really are nice plants.
richard standley: Many thanks Michael.
Traditional, but nicely done.
richard standley: Thank you Martin.

Like the background very much - and that one can see to the center of the dandelion.
richard standley: Many thanks Daina.
amazing detail. we have these popping up all over the place where I live...
richard standley: Thanks Luke.
J'aime beaucoup ce genre de photos. Elles témoignent que la beauté est souvent dans les choses communes et répandues.
Celle-ci est particulièrement bien réalisée.
richard standley: Merci beaucoup Rémi.
Lovely. Looks like fireworks.
richard standley: Many thanks Consuela.
That is a very fine macro shot Richard

Good macro Richard

I always have trouble with dandelion shots. This one came out great. Nice framing and I like the soft background.
richard standley: Many thanks Mike.
Une jolie photo. J'aime bien aussi la salade de pissenlit.
Bon vendredi, Richard.
richard standley: Merci beaucoup Eva.
Bonne soirée.
really cool looking shot!
richard standley: Thanks Kanyi.
Really like the wispy textures and colors. All we need now is a breeze to kick-start the show.
richard standley: I am pleased you like it Sean. Thanks.
Il faut retenir son souffle aujourd'hui en passant chez toi, sinon cette fleur de pissenlit risque de se retrouver dénudée ...... Classique certes, mais réussie ! Bonne journée
richard standley: Merci beaucoup La Cigale. Bonne soirée à toi. Bisous
This proves that there is beauty wherever you look for it. I took about four pictures last year of dandelions after they had turned to puff balls. I find them fascinating. Great capture Richard.
richard standley: Many thanks Marion.
Wonderful focus and detail. How lovely nature is.
richard standley: Thanks a lot Michael.
stunning!! love the contrast!
richard standley: Many thanks Elisa.
Seeding the world.
I find the similarities and differences of dandelions with ripples quite interesting: Ripples expanding outwards and losing their potency. Dandelion seeds spreading outwards and colonising and dominating. Heck that's a bit deep for 7.30 am richard
richard standley: I am impressed by your philosophical thoughts that early in the morning Richard! Cheers. Richard
This is as fine a portrait of a dandelion that I have seen. Very symbolic of the brevity of life.
Ingrid
richard standley: Many thanks Ingrid.
very pretty with the wonderful dof
richard standley: Thanks a lot Nazeeh.
Incroyable comme elle est belle, celle que tout le monde veut détruire
richard standley: L'ennemi des pelouses! Merci Lorraine.
Comme j'aimerai souffler dessus !
richard standley: Je n'ai pas pu résister après avoir pris la photo!
Excellent! I am always fascinated by these seed heads, and your image shows this one off very well, Richard.
richard standley: Many thanks Ray.
Beautiful! Don't we all have a love/hate relationship with this one? Love to blow on them -- hate them in the lawn!! You've captured it wonderfully.
richard standley: Many thanks Martie.
What a super shot. It's so clear and crisp.
richard standley: Thank you Scarlet.
blow it all away and make a wish...
richard standley: I couldn't resist doing it after the shot Chantal! Thanks.
c'est une photo tres réussie, bravo !!! la texture est magnifique, tu fais ca en macro ??? bisous
richard standley: Merci Gallou. Ce n'est pas de la macro à proprement parler. J'utilise mon zoom.
Bonne soirée. Bisous
Very nice colors in this shot and brilliant details.
richard standley: Many thanks Nina.
Excellent macro.
richard standley: Thanks a lot Louis.
Great snap. Dandelions make for some fun pictures - they have details that come alive with a close cropped or macro snap.
richard standley: Many thanks AC.
A well lighted dandelion makes a fine post. I like how it's isolated from the soft background. Fine close up!
richard standley: Thank you for your appreciation Don.
Quand on était enfant on soufflait tout de suite cette petite fleur, n'est-ce pas?
So pretty, Richard! And the prvious tulip, too! Indeed, what a lovely flower series you've been posting. Have a sweet nice weekend

Bonne soirée à toi. Bises
Ha !!! tu me rassures.......

I recall as a young child picking them when they were at this stage. Then of course I'd blow the seeds into the wind. I thought it was marvelous, my parents disagreed
richard standley: Many thanks Sherri. I couldn't resist blowing it just after the shot!
plus beau que nature !
je ne soufflerai pas dessus !!!!! il est trop beau
