I remember the first flower I ever received from my sons…
I can still see their faces, anxiously waiting for my reaction, happy and proud of themselves.
I can still feel the pure joy that bubbled up in my heart when they handed me a single dandelion puff, half crushed and a little bald from their enthousiastic grasp.
Dandelions will always bring me smiling happy memories, just as every mother who was fortunate enough to receive this precious offering…

Thank you Sarah! The f/1.8 aperture really helped with all that powdery softness. :-)

Lovely lovely work Jo, and such a beautiful story behind this too!
Thank you Ursula, glad that you like it! :-) I wanted to add a texture, but I though that it would compete with the delicate one of the of the flower, so I only cross-processed in Lightroom ,using a preset as a basis, and tweaking it a bit to my liking.
