Close up of Dandelion parachutes

The seeds of the dandelion are dispersed by the wind.The small single seeded fruit is suspended on a stalk( the beak)below a parachute of hairs. btw this shot was also taken in a prone position.

what a beautiful result Diana - love this. Mine have all gone to seed too. I am a little out of sinc with days as I prefer to do series in which I learn more about what works and what doesn't. You did a fantastic job with these.

Just trying to catch up on all my friends! This is gorgeous, a bit different for you and I love it!
