Blown Away by andycoleborn

Blown Away

Took the opportunity to get out in Sangeeta's garden this afternoon to do some much needed work. Grass cutting, a few bedding plants bought and planted, hedge cut back... that sort of thing.

Because I'd left it a little too long to cut the grass, it was a bit long, full of dandelions and quite hard work to push the fly-mo around..

Sangeeta was actually out all day with one of her friends shopping and doing other typical 'woman' things leaving me in charge of a total of 3 teenagers... Dunno what all the fuss is about... One watched TV all day, the others played on the playstation...
WOW great picture Andy, clever idea, really sharp, and love the black background. I will fave this :)

I was meant to do my garden today, but I decided against it. It's awful, not done since last year. I'm dreading doing it...

Oh yes! See this garden milarky does have its benefits! I'm not sure what typical woman things are tho!! LOL This is a beautiful shot and like others would love to know the secret beind it. The floating seed heads are gorgeous!

Amazing that you were able to capture it at that moment. You found a way to make a weed look beautiful!
April 18th, 2011  
Awesome capture!

Great shot. You managed to tidy up the garden, overlook the daily habits of three teenagers and take the perfect shot. All in a man's day of labor outdoors!

I had to chuckle at your comment about the three teenagers :)
This is a lovely dandelion shot! Amazing detail.
April 18th, 2011  
Fab! Love the flyaways... Teenagers are fine, until they are not. It comes out of the blue sometimes, LOL.
April 18th, 2011

@mrssmith @Cherrill I'd set the shutter speed quite high leaving the focus on auto and asked Sangeeta's friend to blow the seeds off... first pic was blurred, this was the second, the 3rd she blew too hard and that was that... lucky shot really... Oh and Cherrill (@andifree) I really have no idea what woman get up went out alone lol....

There's me thinking I had come up with something original, I had only seen your sun one. Great minds and all that. Lovely shot with those two flyaways :)
