On November 7, when leaving my son's house in the evening, I crossed the dead lawn and was surprised to see a dandelion in full bloom! The weather was typical Autumn, the sky was cloudy and dreary (it was the same day I took the picture of the fence), the temperature cool, there had been no warm days, and yet, a dandelion bloomed. I was so amazed that I ran back into the house to tell them and then I took a picture of it. The following Monday, when I found myself in the town that has the DQ that I mentioned earlier, I found a dandelion just starting to open. My thoughts were questioning, "why?", "how?", these flowers sprout in the Spring. This all happened in my early days of learning to blog, when I was thinking up topics, and when I discovered this cute dandelion, I was considering writing about the resurgence of the dandelion, the determination to live, not only live, but to stand proud. It made me think of the little engine that could; to be confident to do what you believe in, even when everything around you is dead. So, I have said it, but that is not the topic, which is my horse picture.
When finishing my horse picture, I knew it needed one more source of information to make it complete. Not only did I want this detail for the final picture, but also for the presentation for the student show piece. My thought was to present the final picture as an 8x10 inch center, surrounded by 4 pictures used to create the final product, so I needed one more picture and this was perfect! Where did I use the dandelion? Did I put in behind the horses ear? Did I place it on Peter the Pig? Did I make a dandelion sun in the sky? Tomorrow you will see my final picture! Let the drum roll begin!
Nice dandelion!! wink wink.
