on the many ways of filtering light

Superb...

Perfect

on the many ways of filtering light by ecstaticist.

large | original | My top 100

Inspired by Giorgos~ tone-mapped dandelion seed head from yesterday.

This large dandelion-like seed head does not have a name yet in my personal taxonomy of flora I like to photograph. Hope someone can help me out. Large, brown seed head about the size of a baseball. In any case, it makes a nice sunset filter.

This photo has notes. Move your mouse over the photo to see them.

Wonderful light and composition.

P.S. I have these plants in my garden, also At least I think they are the same ones. Do they have a blue flower? the ones in my garden are self-seeding everywhere and are getting to be quite a nuisance. The finches like them though.
