Oddly enough, I wish there were more spores left on the dandelion puff. That is just me, though and is not a criticism of the shot.

I like how close and detailed you made this shot. Nice job. The contrast in the dandlilion works well

Nice macro! Sharp with a good DOF. The composition also works well, however, I wonder if a square crop might have also been effective. It would give you enough space to place the dandelion in a ROT intersection without the outer circle truncated on three sides (perhaps just on one side). Not sure if that would be an improvement, I'm just thinking aloud. I do like this as you have it.

Great detail, it feels as if you can reach out and grab it.

Reminds me of childhood. The composition and dof are very pleasing.

Beautiful natural pattern and great lighting. Would like to have seen a greater depth of field.

the crop's a bit tight, I'd like to see all the downy bits surrounded by bg.
