Dandelion Seed Head

Here we know them as little windmills. He had never observed them so precisely.

Thank you Anton. I always take at least one shot of these seedbeds each year.

Beyond words !!
Stunning close-up with razor-sharp details.
Well done Keith.

Thank you so much Jaap.............I'm pleased that you like this one so much.

Superb macro, Keith. The dandelions are having a field day at the moment. :-)

Thank you Amelia..............and yes, there is an awful lot of them here as well (mostly in my garden I think)! I try and cut them down with the mower before they go to seed once I've taken some photos.

Der Kreislauf der Natur: Werden und Vergehen !

Indeed. It's good to see them each year...........like old friends :-)

magic Keith

Happy Sunday :)

Thank you Annemarie..........you too.

Thanks Güni...............I always take some photos of these each year, especially the seed heads, which I love. I'm pleased you like this one.

Espectacular macro, feliz domingo.

Thank you Juan Luis.........you're very kind.

Unbelievable and spectacular effect!!
Greatly captured, Keith!

I'm glad you think so Judite..............thank you so much!

Once each little seed head takes off in the wind, they are like little fairies! I think we are all still tempted to pick one and blow the seeds away ;-) No wonder there are so many everywhere! Another great indoor shot from you Keith. The detail is superb and it makes such a beautiful picture.
Have a great Sunday.

Thanks Rosa...........I always take some shots of these each year......they're so beautiful.

I have lots in the lawn at the moment, but once I have enough photos I chop off their heads before they go to seed..!! Cruel, I know :-)))

I'm pleased you like this one and I hope you've had a good weekend so far.

Another excellent closeup from you here with this dandy head. The dark background is ideal to lock our view into the subject which is pin sharp front to back. very well done.

Enjoy the BH. Herb

This is simply stunning Keith. I just love the clarity of your picture, showing us the seed head and the various "baby" dandelions.

Belle macrOOooo de la semence du Dandelion
(Taraxacum officinale) qui s'envole au vent
comme des parachutes,
Kieth savais-tu qu'ainsi la semence peux s'envoler à plusieurs kilomètres..
suivant les vents ascendants
merci mon ami pour tes visites toujours attendues et appréciées

Thank you Roland...........I'm pleased you approve..!! You're very kind.

The distance the seed can fly on the wind for is amazing............especially as they look so delicate and frail.

Clever, dass Du es mit hinein genommen hast....großartiges Makro Keith..man sieht jedes kleine Detail..und es sind noch viele Wünsche übrig :)

Many thanks Tanja..................I'm very pleased you like it.
