Some pictures seem to require a black and white approach. Pussytoes is a common wildflower here and it finally goes to seed as a small puffball like a dandelion. The interesting thing is that nobody sees this stage, it is fleeting. The flower itself is tiny, about the size of the end of a pencil eraser.

As it often happens in nature, a strand of dead grass fell into the flower head, and served up an interesting abstract composition.

I like found abstract nature photos. The good ones seems relatively rare. This one pleases me.
