Dandelion Pirouette  by grannysue

Dandelion Pirouette

I used my new Sigma 24-70mm lens for this shot. I was surprised it came out at all, the way the wind was blowing. I have used my Canon 18-55 for most of my close up shots, but wanted to try this one out. When I was trying to focus on this Dandelion fluff, my dog ran right over it and knocked most of them off, this was all that was left. Took a few shots and tried to bring it inside to take better shots, as the wind was blowing. Just as I opened the door, a gust of wind came by and the rest of them blew away.
Thank you for all your kind comments on my shots, I appreciate it.
Beautiful

@eileenw We got two nice lens and a teleconvertor for quite a deal (I think). At first I did not think it was a good deal, untl my husband checked them out online and saw what they were going for. When we went back to the store, I asked what kind of break he would give us if we bought all three. So he made the deal even better!
