Keith Burton club has replied to Amelia club
Thank you Amelia..............and yes, there is an awful lot of them here as well (mostly in my garden I think)! I try and cut them down with the mower before they go to seed once I've taken some photos.

Once each little seed head takes off in the wind, they are like little fairies! I think we are all still tempted to pick one and blow the seeds away ;-) No wonder there are so many everywhere! Another great indoor shot from you Keith. The detail is superb and it makes such a beautiful picture.
Have a great Sunday.

Keith Burton club has replied to Rosalyn Hilborne club
Thanks Rosa...........I always take some shots of these each year......they're so beautiful.

I have lots in the lawn at the moment, but once I have enough photos I chop off their heads before they go to seed..!! Cruel, I know :-)))

I'm pleased you like this one and I hope you've had a good weekend so far.

Enjoy the BH. Herb

Thank you Roland...........I'm pleased you approve..!! You're very kind.

The distance the seed can fly on the wind for is amazing............especially as they look so delicate and frail.
