Opposites

Light and dark... hard and soft. Just a dandy along an old fence.
Very nice capture of this dandelion. Make a wish and blow it.

Lovely bokeh and focus on the dandelion , Lisa ! I'm feeling the same way......I obviously had way too much fun on the cruise....ho hum....but we'll get through it....:)
May 6th, 2013  
@cazann Aww... thanks Caz! I'm glad you can relate! Yes, we will find our way back to normal, right?!
May 6th, 2013  
So great---love that bokeh and wonderful textures. You'll bounce back.

@yonnie Thank you, Yvonne! Have you recovered from your travels?
May 6th, 2013  
Caz
@pflaume Yes, we will :)
May 6th, 2013  
@pflaume Trying to, Lisa. Will probably recover about the time I head for Utah, California, and Idaho at the beginning of June ; )
May 6th, 2013  
Love it. Gorgeous detail and dof.
May 6th, 2013  
Already seeding dandelions! Ours are just starting to show their sunny little faces! Love the contrasts.
May 6th, 2013  
You've really captured this well! Makes me want to blow and make a wish.
May 6th, 2013  
Your description analyzes this very well. Nice tonal harmony too.
May 6th, 2013  
Nice contrast between the two subjects .
May 6th, 2013  
@yonnie That's great that you have fun trips to look forward to! Where in Idaho will you be going?
May 6th, 2013  
@rvwalker Thank you, Ross! Has is warmed up in your neck of the woods?
May 6th, 2013  
@pflaume Well... yes and no. All the snow in the valley has melted, but the mountains are white. We had "thundersnow" yesterday, but it melted right away. Temps have gotten as low as 14 F in the last couple of days, but we have tulips and daffodils in the front yard.
May 6th, 2013  
Fave! I'm not feeling ho-hum, just really busy with ivy-wraslin' (yard work), chores, and taking care of stuff I put off....all on a weekend with record setting high temps.
May 6th, 2013  
Very pretty...I love the tones.
May 6th, 2013

I love the simplicity of this one . .. the colors are so perfect for the background, and the image so well composed. Art out of something most consider weeds.
