ECF - Weed Edition

I was going to take a picture of my lilies for today but then I saw this, a Dandelion, and it caught my eye and reminded me of another recent picture taking episode.

I was walking down the street in DC a week weeks ago and stopped to take a picture of a pretty flower that I've often admired. A couple of tourists from Australia stopped and told me it was called Lantana. Then they laughingly said it's a weed that grows all over where they live.

Isn't it funny how a weed to one is a pretty flower to another. Enjoy this lovely, ethereal, Dandelion and the weekend ahead.

Love how the depth of field focuses on the little seeds!

My mother-in-law used to say, "who decreed a weed a weed?"

My grandmother used to say that a weed is just a plant growing where you don't want it. ;o)
