Spores of the Sun — a dandelion clock against the blinding sun [1]

Took this by positioning the dandelion clock right in front of the sun, but I hurt my eyes [2] a bit from the light. They’re fine, but it reminded me to be more careful about photos like this. This was going to be a sequel to Two of Us Against the World [3], but I decided to focus on the dandelion blocking the sun, as it’s so much brighter. Had to under-expose manually, because the camera didn’t want the sky to be black. This is my finest black-and-white photo since Raindrops [4]. :smile:

Buy a 4*6 copy for $0.95 (USA only). Lustre finish. After adding, go to your shopping cart [5].
