Dandelion clock

Dandelion clock by dictybloke.
Telling the time by counting how many puffs it took to denude a dandelion - is this something everyone did when they were a kid?

With thanks to clickr_clickr for the dandelion:

Would look great with a random, non-blended blur at around 7 'o' clock. lmao.

Good stuff - if a little homophobic ;)

Homophobic? Oh, I get it, denuded puffs ;> Though I am indeed a terrible homophobe. And a heterophobe, even worse. And I'm very, very phobic about the asexual...

GREAT!!! You use photoshop really well, the effect you create are discrete, it's possible to tell images are spurious just from concept (there ain't no big ben in dandelions), not from technical imperfections. Congratulations

Lovely creative work, the clock has a sort of halo, for some reason made me think of the welsh word for dandelion 'dant y llew' (lion's teeth), well i think that was the right one...
