.
There are still fresh dandelions in shady places even if the season by and large is over in the lowlands, but since I have always published dandelion images in TL during spring I give you one this year too…

Here we can see the pollen receptors are open for business and there are many of them..! Dandelions are known to reproduce in huge numbers, and that is why they are so difficult to get rid of if they settle in your lawn…

One thing is for sure, this flower has the most intense yellow colour I can imagine, shining bright and optimistic in the sun!

Hello Pablo
Selective-focus wise, this picture is a winner because mostly only the essence of a dandelion is shown. But still it's a sharp depiction of its "spermatozoids".
How simplicity can be beautiful and interesting!
