Dandy Boom
by Mark Seaver
I'm with Carolyn on Dandelions. Especially when they go to seed, they make great macro subjects where I like the sense of an explosion of seeds (hence the title). Here's a side view. The first one I saw, I took a few shots, went inside to process them and realized that I needed a bit more dof, plus the center was blown. When I went back, the wind had blown most of the seeds away! I then took matters into my own hands and plucked the seeds from this head. The detached but not blown away seed was a nice unplanned addition. (5D, 100mm macro L + 20mm ET, f/22, 0.3 s, iso 200, tripod & cable release)
