Yeah, yeah, I know, theses have been done to death. Sorry, but it's a first for me.
Seeds fall essentially straight down when dropped without a breeze, so I tilted my set up to give the appearance that it is being carried away by a breeze.
Finally realized that some fall more slowly than others. Once I found a good one, took numerous shots with it.
Nice having a camera and flash that can sync at high shutter speeds to substantially capture motion of dropped seed.
When I do mimic something, I TRY to make some element(s) of it unique or at least execute it better than has been done before, as I'd like to think I have done in my entry this week, and as you have in yours.

Well, you didn't. It scored in the top 5 because this is DPC. Your lighting is off and nothing is original. If you can't handle honest critiques on your images, perhaps a public challenge forum isn't for you. Your retaliation was very, very unnecessary.
I like the composition and the minimalistic image you have presented here, but the subject matter suffers from commonality here on DPC. There are a lot of dandelions on DPC. In fact, I think I've even seen a few with the same type of blown technique. Something seems off to me with the lighting. The highlights seem a little too harsh. 5.
