Yeah. Dandelions are really neat when you look at them closely. I think a lot of people have seen them that way and I like the various shots in the gallery. It's interesting that most of the other ideas that I've had for pattern shots have either been done or have been mentioned. I thought about getting my wife to shoot one of the top of my head and entering it. If it could show up right next to this one, it'd be a hoot! After I got this one ready to go, it just struck me that it looked a lot like something alien coming right at me - maybe coming out of the sky. Jim H.

Well, we all knew dandelions would be popular in this challenge. But I've enjoyed the different ways of presenting them and your's is no exception. Very cool - love the way the little stems hit the frame. I'm surprised we don't have any perfect spider webs, honey combs or wasp nests yet . . . I expected plenty of those too - like the dandelion they are perfect natural patterns! Anyway, nice one. Cindy
