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!

We don't have Dandelions here in the Pinas. Great pics and love the quotations.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful photographs. Very lovely mosaic.

They are indeed beautiful! Thanks so much for sharing your lovely images at MM. :)
ReplyDeleteHi, thanks for stopping by Lavender Cottage.
ReplyDeleteYou've captured dandelions so well, nice mosaic to share.
Wonderful mosaic. I also love the verses that you added to it. Very thoughtful. Sharon
ReplyDeleteThis is a beautiful flower even when it's almost gone. Love the wisps, almost cotton like.
ReplyDeleteMy 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.
ReplyDeleteI love dandelions for this very reason and also cause they're every little kid's favorite bouquet of flowers for their mama.
ReplyDeleteI really love that mosaic and the feeling of warmth it gave me when I first viewed it...ahhmmm...memories of summer's past. :)
ReplyDeleteThey are like fireworks starbursts!

Icy, who would think the lowly dandelion could be so pretty? In your talented eye, they are! Thanks and God bless.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful when it blooms!
ReplyDeleteFantastic Dandelion photos and mosaic! Poor poor dandelions.. they get a bad rap as a weed but they are so healthful and the leaves are so tasty!
ReplyDeleteGreat post!
Have a wonderful week ahead!

These mosaics are extraordinary Icy. The closeup dandelion photo with the quote "Solitude sharpens awareness of small pleasures otherwise lost."

is just perfect.
I have dandelions too. I really liked your pictures of them. They looked really pretty.
ReplyDeleteA great series of shots Icy, the lowly dandelion is pretty as long as it's not on my lawn.
