Endless Possibilities of Hopes and Dreams

I pulled over and took this shot on the side of a busy highway today. I love how dandelions are all over the place now. Reminds me of sweet memories and innocence.
wonderful dof and detail

@tryeveryday Yes, I do. There are so many here...more than anywhere I've lived before. Grass is full of them. Thanks, lady. Can't wait to see your weed shot! Weeds rock!

@snaggy It's cause we are blowing them over to you;-). Thanks, Kev. What happened to the z?

@sistawood Me, too, my friend. There is just something sweet and childlike about them.

@skpinny Thanks so much, sweet lady!

@amandal Felt it had ran it's course - maybe try something else when I get another misspelling ;-)

That is such a lovely serene shot, but all I can think of is you risking life and limb pulling over on a busy highway to take it...:)

@bristolrose There was actually a parking lot to an abandoned gas station that I pulled into and I was away from the road (not teetering on the side or anything). I just felt pretty silly shooting weeds as the traffic roared by. I may have laid down for a shot for the best pov, but wasn't going to have my butt up in the air for the honks;-). Sorry to mislead and thanks for your comments:).

@amandal , I am glad you explained that, I was worried...now I can just enjoy that beautiful serene shot. :)

It's amazing how beautiful a simple weed can be but the seeds in this flower lend themselves to the camera!

That is just a simply beautiful capture, I love it.
May 1st, 2013  
Beautiful capture, great DOF

A lovely, sweet, simple and innocent Dandelion shot Amanda. I can't wait for the them to "turn" here too.
May 1st, 2013  
That's one of the most perfect specimen of dandy-lion I have eber seen. It does appear to have a personality and I like your sentiment Amanda :)

@maggiemae They are awesome little weeds aren't they. So delicate and full of silky goodness and detail. Loved your shot of them, too!:)

@tonydebont Thank you, Mr. Tony!

@johnmnewman Thanks, John. I shot some decay today (but opted to post my cute kid instead). Maybe I will post some tomorrow.:)

@barbsmith Thanks, lady. I agree:)!!

@abhijit Thank you, Abhijit!

@anazad511 Thanks, sweet Ana!

@happysnap Love your comments! Thanks, lady!

@adamj Thanks, Adam, for your great comments. And I shot them again today but a person got in the way;-).
May 1st, 2013

May 1st, 2013

@hamble @corley Thanks so much:)). I took another dandy shot today with a model!
May 1st, 2013  
Great capture! Love the colors here.

@pflaume Thanks, lady. I did, too:).
May 2nd, 2013  
I like how you captured it in it's fluff and yellow forms. Wonderful DOF!
May 2nd, 2013  
@emrob Thanks so much, Mandy!!
May 2nd, 2013  
Believe it or not I just found my fist dandelion today. The grass is covered in yellow ones but not the seed head ones which is odd because usually it's the other way around. Anyways your shot is fabulous, wonderful tones, dof, focus and bokeh...well captured =)

I don't have any dandies in my album yet! Need to take some. This is beautiful composition, simple and very pleasing.
