Dark black and white image of a decaying thistle, its stem is bent over, so the remains of the flower hang upside-down. The flower is now a dry, light-colored bristle full of texture (pappus)and the involucre / phyllaries (bracts) are sharply pointed and spiny-like petals at the base of the flower. The stem rises up from the lower left corner, goes to the top of the frame, then bends downward positioning the flower in the upper third of the image (on the right edge).

The petals of this Coltsfoot flowers have matured, almost all having transitioned from yellow to white fluffballs. Each long white pappus helps to disperse the seeds into the wind.

Much like the Dandelion, the seed head of the smaller Sowthistle has parachute-like, fluffy white pappus attached to the seeds that facilitate wind dispersal.

I captured a rosebud using petals of a pink rose as it's background & caught the tiny pappus of a dandelion on the leaf. ❤️🧡🩷

A repost for #FlowerFriday of a Gerbera daisy. I'm partial to this shot; you can see the dark little pappus hairs in the center.
Also, this flower is giving sarlacc vibes. #IYKYK

DANDELION 🌼 #DragonAge #DorianPavus #dafanart #zazrichart
illustration done for the Dragon Age fanzine Ardent Blossom. It shows Dorian Pavus lounging on the stairs of an undefined ruin, wearing leisure wear. Dandelions are surrounding him, having grown through the cracks of stone. Dorian's expression is serene and he is holding an assortment of blowballs in front of his face. In his other hand he's holding a stem with only a seed head remaining, the pappus already blown away.
