Portrait Series

There were problems with the colour in this image. It's heading toward midnight, and I decided to play a while in Photoshop. 

I have a more natural, unprocessed image of the same child but photoshop can be so much fun.  It took me into a world that felt like art, beyond the art of photography.

Dandelions ...

The common name dandelion (/ˈdændɨlaɪ.ən/ DAN-di-ly-ən, from French dent-de-lion, meaning "lion's tooth") is given to members of the genus, and like other members of the Asteraceae family, they have very small flowers collected together into a composite flower head. Each single flower in a head is called a floret. Many Taraxacum species produce seeds asexually by apomixis, where the seeds are produced without pollination, resulting in offspring that are genetically identical to the parent plant.
