Dandruff-lions


Okay, I know they're weeds and all, but I like dandelions. I think they're pretty in their own little yellow way. My dad, of course, hates them. Especially when they're growing all over our front yard for everyone to see. He calls them "dandruff-lions" because of when they turn white and shed all over the place. He says it's like the yard has a bad case of dandruff.

All of them are gone now, thanks to his weeding and whatnot, but before he murdered them all, I took this pretty sweet close up of one. I love the way it came out. To me it kind of shows that even a simple, and rather annoying weed, can be quite beautiful when looked at through an artists' eye. Enjoy!
