After 4 days off-off-line, here I am ... posting a snapshot of a dinner we made in Bourgogne, France.
This region is beautiful. Really beautiful.
I'm using my small travel laptop and I'm really not sure about the screen. I know there's a problem with a strange kind of film over all of the images I view on it so ... I will post snapshots, tell you some stories, and wait to process the best of the beauty when I am home again.
There were problems with the colour in this image. It's heading toward midnight, and I decided to play a while in Photoshop.
I have a more natural, unprocessed image of the same child but photoshop can be so much fun. It took me into a world that felt like art, beyond the art of photography.
This is why I love my 70-200mm lens.
People forget you're there and you can get shots like this...
I captured them, just as they were escaping the party ...
The common name dandelion (/ˈdændɨlaɪ.ən/ DAN-di-ly-ən, from French dent-de-lion, meaning "lion's tooth") is given to members of the genus, and like other members of the Asteraceae family, they have very small flowers collected together into a composite flower head. Each single flower in a head is called a floret. Many Taraxacum species produce seeds asexually by apomixis, where the seeds are produced without pollination, resulting in offspring that are genetically identical to the parent plant.
