Dandelions, and, a big sky

They are considered a blight on a manicured lawn, but, in a country pasture and under a big sky, they are stunning.

Wow, Pierre. That's a lot of Dandelions! Very attractive shot with pleasing colors!

The fields in the rural areas are full of them this Spring. I have never seen so many in my life.
Thank you Carol.

The fields are covered with dandelions this year. There'll be a lot of seeds blowing around in a few weeks.

beautiful pastoral scene,Pierre. Reminds me of the rape seed fields in England/Wales...like fields of gold! I do like A dandelion. My problem is that they want to take over everything, crowding out other beauties and their root extends all the way to China.

A lovely image, Pierre,
I do love expansive fields of dandeleons and the sky's not the least of it!
I saw a similar...damned near identical... cloud display down on the Rosebud Lakota reservation and the two Lakota (Sioux) I was with were looking at the sky and speaking in Lakota...I heard the word "wambli" (eagle) and asked if they had seen an eagle. One of them laughed and pointed to the clouds, saying"there...they are flying up into the sky"
...and he was right!
When Ireturn from spending time in their company I always feel my sight ...my perception...has improved in some profound and interesting ways.

Your experience resonates with me. I have not lived in an urban atmosphere for 50 years and that feeling has grown in me.
Thanks Dave for dropping in and your comment.

Lovely openness to this shot Pierre, of course enhanced by the "big" sky. Got a really nice relaxed feel to it and the yellow/blue opposites always works well
