Dandelion field

Dandelion Field in Stayton Oregon

In this neck of the woods, school starts again in a week... the effective end of summer. My 14-year-old niece went into a slight panic yesterday when she realized she only had a week left before she begins high school. I'm more than a little happy those days are long behind me. :)

To me, the photo above is symbolic of summer's end, with autumn just around the corner -- a field of dandelions which have spent their days in the sun and are greeting the sunset, with change coming with the sunrise.

Or something like that. The photo was taken at sunset in Stayton.

You have a real talent for photographing mundane objects so that they look like artwork.

Thanks, John and Santy. :)

Carla... how sweet of you to say. Thank you.

We don't have a lot of landmarks, etc., around here, so I try to find something in everyday things. I didn't think that shot was going to come out since the lighting was pretty low, so it was a happy surprise. We all get lucky, sometimes. :)
