Dandelion green

The humble yet wonderful dandelion clock. Irresistible to us all, and something that just has to be photographed.

This was found on the grounds of Osterley Park, a rural oasis close to Heathrow Airport. Nature’s tick-tock can be awash with colour or a dramatic monochrome.

I think I prefer the b/w version of the two this time round, Mike. It’s something less expected that way. :)

  Indeed it is, though I’m rather more fond of the colour version this time. Take it outside?!

There’s something so fascinating about Dandelions. As kids in England, my sister and I had lots of fun, blowing those seeds. :)

  Yes, they’re a part of childhood for sure. I was told you could tell the time by them!

    I’ve got hay fever and when it’s warm, sunny and windy… Well, you can guess what happens ;-)
