5th July 2014 - Dandelion

No shots today as my camera was in the shop being having the sensor cleaned. It seems it had grease on it which was why my dry clean didn't work. Using the 100-400mm lens can cause a lot of dust and pollen onto the sensor - I didn't know that. It's the bellows action. Oh well it's clean once again.

This looks like a dandelion but not sure that it is as it was much bigger than a dandelion plant. Anyway I liked the seed head and thought it suited this conversion.

Many thanks on your comments on yesterday's shot - very much appreciated as always!!
I really like this. The detail is exquisite and the b/w really is well suited. Hope you get your camera back soon!

Great texture!

Interesting processing as it brings out details in a way that I suspect a color version wouldn't.

Fab detail in this macro Pam, it suits the b&w conversion.

I always seem to be getting dust on my sensor since living here.

@elaine55 Thanks Elaine - it wasn't dust - it was grease!!

Very effective in b/w. I posted an undandelion shot a couple of days ago but didn't think about converting to b/w. Must try.
