What a lovely capture of many a lawn fanatic's bane. First I've seen this season! A very pretty weed that I don't mind too much in my yard.

Dandelions are very under rated. They are a beautiful flower as we can see in the details you have captured.

Excellent dof Karen! V

Nice and sharp, and taken from an unusual angle; it seems to be just sticking its head in from the side of frame to say "Hello".
sue anne24-Mar-2012 20:19
