[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note [Dutch]
This is a commen flower in Holland. We name it Horse-flower. Taraxum is the official name of it. In the past farmers believed that if you blow and the seads who were left over where the number of childeren you would have. If you blow them all away you may do a wish.
I like them when they are like this, nice and fluffie..

Funny, here in the USA we call them dandelions (dan-dee-lions) and they are thought of to be a royal pain in the ass! Nothing more than invasive, ugly weeds... I do think they are invasive weeds, but I don't think they are entirely ugly.

I love your POV in this picture. Either the focus is off a little bit or the picture is poor quality, because the photo looks a bit grainy (too low resolution perhaps). Other than that, I really like this picture. TFS!

Kristy,

A very unusual POV. Most pics are taken, looking down toward the subject. Very original and with the clear sky in the BG, it makes for a very good pic. TFS,
Sheriff
