Dandelion Dream

[Amy Earl]

Continuing to play with the dream-like effect of a smudged UV filter, I shot some dandelions in our yard this week using the sunset in the background to create some cool bokeh. I really liked how this came out. C&C welcome.

Here's another dandelion shot with direct light on the subject, capturing some unexpected blue hues

The second one works best.

Interesting Amy!

Now I liked the first one the best.

But both of them are different and cool. I had hoped to try and play with the sun/bright light in the background when I was playing with my Vaseline, but just never found a good composition to do it with.

What's your aperture on these?

Interesting concept. Nice.

I am with Ben on liking the second image - nice effect in both.

Thanks everyone Aperture was 6.3 for both.
