Well ... dandelions are actually alive ... and can bend with the light, so I guess they would be considered animate objects. However, it's a great shot, and I am sure they didn't move when you took their picture! Great pic!
Mmm, not sure about inanimate but such a gorgeous shot that we'll pretend that they're not alive! I love the tones in this and the contrast of that dark stem against the delicate fluffiness. Beautiful!
i don't know... i strongly suspect them of being pandimensional beings and this just happens to be what they look like in our universe... but then, i'm convinced that the tv is spying on me and that if i kill a bug it's cousin who was raised in the sewer on discarded chemicals and is now 20 feet all is gonna come get me ;p (did i just write all that??? waaaaaaay too much sugar today ;p)
