Dandelion season is over in the lowlands where I live, but last weekend I crossed over a mountain range to get to another valley. Up there the dandelions were still in full flower and they really are brightening the landscape providing fine colour contrast with the greenery!

This is a wide view to show the impact from this colourful plant in the landscape, and I give you this as an addition to my first dandelion image!

Super shot! Great composition with the road leading in. I really like the hard contrast between the far away yellow patch and the trees.
Fantastic blue sky, the polarizer did its trick.

Well done!

Cheers,
Jens

Hi Pablo my friend ;)
nice composition...simple, peaceful, beautiful...TFS
Have a nice day,

Hi Pablo,
I am really starting to enjoy your Dandelion theme both here and on TN. These flowers can change the country side completely by just adding this one color. The road in this photo is great, it leads the eye nicely into the scenery. The dark blu sky gives the entire photo wonderful contrast.

Hi Pablo..
I adore the way into which you are showing us these beautiful landscapes..
Your photographs are exceptional..
This is very fantastic photo..
Thanks..

Lovely blue sky Pablo and a well composed image. The dandelions stand out nicely against the green. I hope that is a field of canola (rapeseed) in the distance and not more dandelions. TFS,
David

Hei Pablo, great landscape capture. Do like the contrast here of greens and blues of the sky and yellows of the flowers in the foreground as well as the repetition to the background. Nice composition with the road leading us into the landscape.

Hi Pablo,
Another of your patented sky shots! The Dandelions are so pretty to look at from a distance, but they are such pests if you are a gardner trying to keep a lawn in good shape. It is always a loosing battle to keep them away.

It's a scene that cannot be viewed here - the abundancy of these yells is enormous! Included in the composition together with the diagonals of the hill and the road and the unusually deep sky, they make a fascinating landscape.

Hi Pablo,
For unknown reason I missed this posting......wow indeed the colour contrast is stunning, what a beautiful panorama! The dandilons makes the landscape look as a yellow sea, the (dark)blue sky is breathtaking. Did you used a polorizing filter? Anyway this photo is a joy for the eye!

You are really great with this kind of pictures, Pablo.

Great sharpness on whole of the picture with good pov and always great colours.

It's almost your trademark. When I see the thumbnails in the gallery I mostly see a thumbnail and before I look to the name beneath, I think:"This is a Minto."

Well done.

Again a shot like here in Bavaria ;-)
Hi Pablo, it's getting boring to hear that you country looks like mine, isn't it ;-)

Very well seen & composed!

Pretty, clean air, good sunshine, what a great feeling!

I have the feeling to say goodbye to the summer as i see that scene. Holonda... Quebec.. . As i see that scene i tell myself i don't see the difference! Same green full of yellow! Wonderfull... As i'm looking now the windows to my right... Time is to the rain and automn install it's first signs... Funny to say... This is not a contrast... But addition of blue and yellow give green... Just like that :)

Hi Pablo,
Instead of clichés: this is one of the most beautiful landscape images I've ever seen. Fantastic, 100 out of 100. Big congrats. Best wishes, László

Hi Pablo,
WOW !!! what colors !!! It's really impressive.
So so beautiful.
I can't wait for the summer !!!
Excellent point of view.
I like !!!
Congratulations.

Hi Pablo,

When you uploaded this picture we were in Norway enjoying the dandelions, the whoel country was covered with these bright yellow wild flowers and it put a smile on my face just driving along the country roads.
Thanks so much for reminding me!
This is exactly how it was - wonderful capture.

such a stunning shot of the mountains and country sides. Great deep blue sky and yellow dendelions are complementary to give you shot a very pleasing and ezxciting scenery. The existence of the winding road allow perspective of the eyes to be lead into the forest.
Real shot with great and careful calculated rules and elements.
Real great composition.
