Description Day 120 of 365

Been a while since I've taken a macro that I've actually been happy with. Today might be an exception though. Don't always trust the rule that people tell you, "always shoot with the sun at your back."

This is probably just me over-analyzing the photo, but for some reason these two dandelion stamen look like they were meant to be together But then there's that pesky scraggly one coming in from the corner, trying to tear them apart It seems I've captured a bit of a dandelion love triangle going on here
Okay I should go to bed.

Hmm... but maybe the pesky scraggly one is really just heartbroken, hanging desperately onto its ex-lover who so brutally abandoned it to be with someone else?

MUST THINK ABOUT THESE THINGS.

I love the way the evening (?) light catches the stamen. Really beautiful shot.

Your photography is very good. Ik bewonder je! I wish i could do thesame but it doesn't work well with a 10 megapixel canon powershot xD. What kind of cameras do you use maybe I could buy one later ^^. *Loves your work*

FramedByNature In reply to Nadekyou [2011-06-05 18:52:43 +0000 UTC]

Thank you very much!
And I'm sorry, but limited gear is no excuse to not take fantastic photos. A 10 megapixel Canon PowerShot is miles better than my first camera, which was a 7mpx powershot. These photos were all taken with my first camera: [link] [link] [link]
Right now, I shoot with a Canon 60D (just got it a few days ago). When I first upgraded from the PowerShot though, I bought a Canon Digital Rebel

They're dandelion stamens?

Oh. 0mm. That explains it. Reverse lens technique?
