Breaking free 2

These dandelions were in a yard were i work , i saw them yesterday and thought macro !

there was loads of them , typically it was quite breezy today , and most had gone by the time i got to snap them , i used a thin metal rod stuck in the ground to steady them for the shot , but this meant the stem didnt move ,and as i was taking the pic the seeds started blowing away , which was quite nice for the pics i think , by the time id done they had all blown away :)

 

Canon 40D , Tamron 70-300mm and raynox DCR-250
