Blowin' in the wind....

Tell me what you think? Any good? Does the processing suit?

i think the processing is good and really fitting, however i think you may need to close the aperture a stop or 2, would have been nice to get a bit more detail on the edges of the dandelion, love the concept and composition though, what lens did u use??

Thanks David, this was with a 28mm f/2.8 AI-s. Here's a B&W version with a slightly different crop:

I like it alot. It's the kind of thing I could see hanging as some canvas wall art

i like the B&W one more, and i agree with the wall art comment from Gavin, but also the comment about stopping it down a bit so you got the edges of the dandelion in focus too

cracking shot

Thanks chaps. I was using a manual focus lens and the wind was blowing the dandelion head about a bit so focus was a bit difficult. I was at f/2.8 as I wanted the nice creamy background
