Nice job Cheryl!

Looks like what we call Cobblers Pegs. Catch in your clothes & spread like mad. A real pest in other words.

Well it sure isn't any dandelion I've ever seen! Incredibly sharp agains the deep bokeh - nice shot and post work!

Excellent work.

That's quite a plant. The black spiky parts underneath make a nice contrast with the white star petals.
Guest 17-May-2005 00:19
Interesting flower and well shot Cheryl! This is one of those plants with great potential. I'm sure you could spend a long time photographing from many different perspectives and lighting styles.

Very nice

Hi Larry,
It grows on a taller plant than a dandelion and the seedpods/parachutes are more like paper than fluff.
Guest 16-May-2005 23:20
Is this a form of a Dandelion? Beautiful capture!
