Thanks for all the compliments.
I am only just starting out. I have had my camera for little over a month now.
With any luck, I will get much better with experience.

Thanks again.

I think I would try to bump the contrast or something to really make this image pop.

Dandilions look much nicer close-up. Nice shot.

Overall, this is a nice macro. I think you could have cropped it more.

8 - Oh, very nice. A touch of 'warm sun' and it would be near perfect. I will have to look for those little 'things' on the next flowering dandelion I see, never noticed them before. Good macro.

Great detail. It's lacking a little pop for me. Maybe crop out more and zoom in on a smaller area?

That is really pretty. I had no idea a dandelion could look like that.

I have never seen a dandilion this close, it is quite spectacular.
