Dandelion

Now that the weather is colder, we don't see dandelion anymore! Have you ever watched how this flower changes its stages in life?

It is a simple pleasure for me to follow and capture the growing stages of a dandelion! I used to dislike them, but through my camera's lens, I become a follower!

Different Stages of Dandelion


Simply enjoy life and the great pleasures that come with it.
Karolina Kurkova


Solitude sharpens awareness of small pleasures otherwise lost.
Kevin Patterson


That man is rich whose pleasures are the cheapest.
Henry David Thoreau


Think big thoughts but relish small pleasures.
H. Jackson Brown, Jr.

  6. This is a beautiful flower even when it's almost gone. Love the wisps, almost cotton like.

  7. My favorite picture is above that great quote by Thoreau. The white parts looks so soft and feathery and I like how the background is blurry yet colorful. All of the dandelion images are beautiful.

  8. I love dandelions for this very reason and also cause they're every little kid's favorite bouquet of flowers for their mama.
