We've got a nice crop of the Dandelion v 1.0 in yellow all over our yard. I imagine that soon I will be forced upgrade to Dandelion 2.0 as pictured above. I've heard that uninstalling the Dandelion suite is very difficult, if not impossible.

Nice shot.

Rick: That is special.

Pastor Jeff... it's impossible to uninstall manually, but there are some add-ons you can purchase that should do the trick!

This one reminds me of cacti. We find them next to each other right now in the desert over here. They have visual similarities, no?

Rick Lee said...

Yeah, it does look sortof cactus-like now that you mention it.

That's an awesome shot. The back-lit highlights are fantastic, dramatic.

Which camera did you use for this? I don't think I've captured anything this clear on my Fuji f20.

Rick Lee said...

I would think the F20 would be capable of such a shot (in macro mode). That's one of the few Fuji "F" series that I have never owned! I just recently got my hands on the brand new Fuji F100. That's what this was taken with. So far I'm thrilled with it. Ever so much better than the crappy F50 which came out after the wonderful F30. I plan on doing a write-up about the F100 if I can find the time.

I've taken some good macro shots with it, don't get me wrong, but I don't think many, if any, were quite this clear.
