Dandelion



Among the recently blooming spring flowers are dandelions. I think
 they're actually more of a weed than a flower, which might explain why
 they don't grow in collected patches. 


Composition-wise I was trying to get the brightness of the yellow
 dandelion reflecting the sun to contrast the shadowed ground, and
 to utilize the macro lens' warped perception of the flower's shape
 to create more of an abstract design than a simple picture of a flower.
 The top one sort of reminds me of a flag, and the bottom one has great colors.
