18MAY05 - Dandelion

Like a loquacious but vivacious and felicitous friend, the ever common, but never vulgar, dandelion brings a springtime smile to me. In some special, untended yards or fields, where no other flower would grow, it fills every space with its amber presence...

(05/05/19) With a dark background...

Chantal - The yellow of the flower is great, although I would have choosen a more darker background for contrast.....
Chantal - Dale, I like the one with the darker background better. The flower 'speaks' more and the color is better this way!!
Ajeetha - Even i felt the same to have a darker background as a contrast, but with the white background it actually blends into itself which seems so pure.
karen (no link) - The black background is dramatic, but I like the white background better. The flower has more depth since your eye is drawn to the different the shades of yellow. The curled inner pedals seem to stand upright.
