Sanjay: This is brilliant IMO. I love seed heads and this is a great take on this one. I like your comp and the conversion looks terrific. Most excellent! >=))>

Creative capture, Sanjay. it does look like the two seedheads are starting on their way (to my yard, that is!). I like the B&W conversion. Well done.

Sanjay - Can be interpreted in many ways !!.

Love the semi-circle in the bottom right and then the two well in focus seed heads beginning to start their journey at the top. B&W suits this just fine !

Excellent monochrome dandelion detail photo in perfect light, very good clarity. The well-chosen tight crop eliminates all unwanted distractions. Well done Sanjay.

The conversion works very well here. I really like the com here, which stresses the symmetry behind the seeming chaos.

A very fine study in tones, lines, and light.
