Dandelion

After seeing the first yellow flowers, the dandelions of the season, I started to through my past files and found this one that was left behind. For whatever reason, sometimes we really neglect to use some pictures that were good enough for sharing, but did not made it to the cut. I like this one, and I'm sure I will be taking more photos of them this year, I just can't wait to see them like this again!
Did you know that dandelions are used to make wine? I heard about it, but I've never tried it, i wonder how it tastes...
If you are interested too, I found this site that has the recipe:

If by any chance you decide to give it try, let me know if you liked it :)
And talking about things that we like...

Photography is my passion, and nature photography is my favorite.
I have been in Explore for more that a hundred times, and it is an awesome experience to have your photos showcased in such a special way.
I'm in many groups, and I only add my photos to them if they are not private.
I thank your for coming today, for leaving a comment, and make a favorite of yours this photo, (if that is the case) thanks again!
The best part of this forum is the contacts and friends that I have made over the years, that have the same passion for this art that is called photography!
Martha,
the light is bouncing off my white shirt and illuminating the stem from the proximal side. Bokeh effect as a result of depth of field not photoshopped.
I am sprawled out belly down on my neighbors' park strip happy to see the sunlight hitting their dandelions just so. I have this fear that someone is taking pictures of me every morning when I take my photo of the day. The image in my head is not pretty but at least it would be amusing.
Happy Thursday!
Been offline for a while but just catching up...
Taraxacum is a large genus of flowering plants in the family Asteraceae, which consists of species commonly known as dandelions. They are native to Eurasia and North America, but the two commonplace species worldwide, T. officinale and T. erythrospermum, were introduced from Europe and now propagate as wildflowers.
Both species are edible in their entirety.T he common name dandelion (from French dent-de-lion, meaning "lion's tooth") is given to members of the genus. Like other members of the Asteraceae family, they have very small flowers collected together into a composite flower head. Each single flower in a head is called a floret. In part due to their abundance along with being a generalist species, dandelions are one of the most vital early spring nectar sources for a wide host of pollinators.
