Going to Seed

Loving the mix of dead brown seed heads and vibrant fall flowers in the garden.I remember when I would weed all the dead stuff out...now I don't even want my hubby to mow the dandelawn because it might ruin a photo op.lol

Beautiful! Those colors are stunning. Started giggling when you talked about the dandelion - boy, that rather maligned flower has certainly gone up in status with me, too!

Very lovely seed heads against the purple background. Regal looking.

Me too! I keep looking at what remains of my Coneflowers and think "I should cut those off and plant the seeds for next year" and then I think "But I might take one more shot of them!". This is beautiful.

This is beautiful! And I feel same way about mowing the lawn except I now it. Last time I did, I saved a praying mantis from my mower though and got a few pics. I got in a hurry and too busy and never got to post those pics of it... Just posted pics from my phone camera. I need to go back and find those shots!
