Dandelion Seed Head

It’s time for another flower in the round for Flower a Day, in this intricate and beautiful dandelion seed head grouping. These were not taken with the Helios but with a fish-eye lens as you can see, but as in the previous round shares, I love the little world it seems to draw us into. We know this microcosm of a world is populated with countless organisms – animal, vegetable and insect – and that some are visible to us but most are out of sight. These most obvious ones we see here are just the tip of the iceberg! As so many things in life are, it’s worth diving into the environment to find out what lies hidden. The bare ground will hopefully soon appear and with it some more delights for us in these colder climes to enjoy. Meanwhile, enjoy dreaming of warm dandelion days.

  1. A ‘flower in the round’ for sure, Ellie. A globe in a globe….the world in a dandelion seed head. All perfect whichever you see it. And “all’s right with the world”. Thank you, Ellie, for a different perspective on things.

    1. I find I learn so much turning my world on its head from time to time, or at least seeing it in a more rounded way! Thanks Janet. Love your comments on

  2. Lovely Ellie thanks so much for sharing. I really love the view that that fisheye lens gives you. The depth you’ve created with that fisheye lens it’s really pretty even in its seed form.
