Lovely pissabed. Why is it that in a photo they look fascinating. But when I see them in my yard they just make me cranky? Loved the post about the bird nests. --Curmudgeon
Breanne~~Thanks! They are quite beautiful up close.
Curmudgeon~~I've never heard of "pissabed". I think my neighbors may feel cranky as well when they see the seeds drifting their way:).Thanks for the comment on the bird nest post...still only one robin with all those nests.
Joy~~I hear you;).I tried to get a shot of my son blowing the seeds, but we couldn't quite get coordinated to blow and shoot at the same time.
Luckily we don't have many neighbors. Otherwise I think we would get quite a lot of complaints regarding the dandelions. I think they are quite fascinating especially close up like here.
For several years I was working on a photo project where I took black and white photos of - dandelions. People used to look a bit skeptic when I told them about the project but it came out quite nice in the end.

Isn't there something about making a wish and blowing? Of course it won't work on the computer screen. We have to go to our own yards and do it. :-)
Nice shot and I like the tiny remnant of the yellow flower peeping through. Great photo! -- Good Acres
Lovely photo - there is something quite magical about dandelion clocks. Shame about the dandelions they produce next year.

A lot of beautiful photos lately!
We used to spend hours as children blowing these to work out what time it was. Lovely photo.
Lovely!

Nancy~~I agree, just dandy:)).
Chris~~If wishing works, I'm going in search of a field of dandelions. Yes if you can, please resist blowing on your computer screen:).
Good Acres~~Thanks! You have a good eye! I noticed the yellow only after I took the shot.
Karen~~Ah yes, even more dandelion clocks!
Marie~~Thanks for stopping by.
Zoe~~Thanks so much. We loved this activity as children as well.
Linn~~Wow, a whole book devoted to dandelions...I'll bet it is fascinating, especially done in black and white.
