Delicate…Dainty…Light as Air…

I think dandelions might be my favorite flower (or weed) to photograph.  I took this on our day trip to Sedona.  We were at the top of Oak Creek Canyon and it was windy and bright, making for less than ideal conditions for taking photos.  Though the scenery was gorgeous, I was more interested in finding the perfect dandelion to photograph, in a shady area. In retrospect I wish I would have spent more time experimenting with different settings for different looks.  But it was getting late, I was getting tired, and any sort of creative vision I had was starting to wane.  There will always be more dandelions out there though…

    This is beautiful…I was just out walking with JaNiyah and tried to take a couple dandelion pics but she kept pulling them and blowing them before I could.
