    Very nice. Good choice for DOF, I think.

    Lovely shot and perfect DOF used for this specimen.
    Hope you do go back and get a shot again after they do retire, as the Prairie Smoke, as I know it, is just as beautiful, (if not more so), when it goes to seed.
    Reality is a nice place to visit, but I wouldn't want to live there!

    Thanks all, much appreciated. Yes, I will go and capture them with the full 'head of hair'; by the way: if you take hairspray along, you can make sure they stay all in place and are much easier to capture.
