Description
I wonder if I hadn't named this image, "Dandelion Don't Tell No Lies", how many people would realise what these beautiful flowers are. I created this image using a special effect, on my camera. I was very impressed with the result which left ordinary dandelions with these stunning colours. If this was their natural colour, I don't think people would be in such a hurry to eradicate them from their gardens. I'm sure that as soon as anybody sees or hears the name dandelion, they switch off straight away. I don't know why because even in their natural colour, they are a very beautiful and impressive flower. They have a great name too, but their reputation as an unwanted weeds goes before them.
