A Puff of Fluff

It seems that there are more dandelions than usual this year.  Large expanses of green are dotted with these cheery little drops of color and make for a pretty picture .  Yet a lot of time and effort and money is spent trying to get rid of them.  Some see a field of weeds and some see a field of wishes.  What do you see?

  13. Great photo and great question! If its in my yard, I see weeds. If its in a field, I see wishes. Although I have to admit that it's been years since I've made a wish on one. Hmmm, maybe I should give that another try.

  14. Wonderful shot. I see a beautiful sea of yellow when they are in bloom. They are one of Nature's beauties. To me a weed is an unwanted plant. But, I want most plants.

  15. Pretty image Stephanie. Nicely processed. Dandelion puffs in great light on somebody else's property-good. Too many dandelion puffs in my yard without enough money or desire to weed/feed-not so good.
    BTW-that new header I really like.

  16. I see my childhood... when we would blow the seeds apart and make a wish.
    Beautiful image with just the right light.

  19. Dear Texture Tuesday friends,
    I'm sure you know that Kim's husband is currently undergoing chemotherapy for Leukemia in Winnepeg. I would like for us TT followers to do something special for Kim and John this week. If you are able, could you create a Texture Tuesday image with the theme of HEALING for Kim and John, and post it on her Facebook page at https://www.facebook.com/kimklassencafe this Tuesday? I would love to see a big show of support and love for them.
    Thank you,
