[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
Late summer in the Canadian prairies. The thistles have bloomed and are making down - their airborn seeds that travel near and far. Here you can see the evolution from the fading flowers to the down taking off.
Cropped, levels, hue, a little sharpening.

HI John,
I like how the light falls on the thistle seeds.
Great diagonal composition.
The dark BG works very well to make yur subject stand out.
