There was a heavy dew on Saturday morning and, aside from Callie getting all wet and muddy, the vineyard was beautiful as the sun came up. The droplets sparkled in the light and little mists formed as they began to evaporate. I saw this dandelion covered in tiny drops of dew.
The seeds were parted at the top of the flower head and I was treated to this intimate view. I'm certain that once the dew evaporated, the breeze took the seeds and scattered them.
What a stunning photograph!
ReplyDeleteFabulous photo, especially when dandified !! Let's hope none of the dandelon seeds drifted towards your garden.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful: I could see it in a "guess what this is" photo competition.

ReplyDeleteI dandified it! Glad you are sleeping better now.
ReplyDeleteI concur; what a stunning photo!
ReplyDeleteA humble thanks to all of you. Sometimes I get lucky.
ReplyDeleteThe camera is a Panasonic Lumix FZ7 that's about 5 years old now. It's got a built-in optical zoom lens that's the functional equivalent of a 36-432mm.
I'm itchin' to upgrade to a full SLR, With interchangeable lenses (for wider angles and longer zooms) but still waiting for the right moment.
