dandelions

Since I don’t have a lot of my own flowers yet (I’m mainly focused on growing vegetables), I’ve been snapping the wildflowers that are growing of their own accord. I love how peering at a common dandelion through a camera lens turns the mundane into the magical, turns the common into a thing of rare, delightful beauty. This is what I try to do when capturing an image, a moment, a feeling, into words–to describe the ordinary in an extraordinary way.

So, dandelions:

(We think David probably took this picture. Oh, to have two photographers of dandelions and only one camera!)

    O.k. You made them look pretty, but I still am sick of those things. Happy ww!

    We have so many of them, I have to see them in a positive light. Besides, the kids have a lot of fun with them.
