    I made this image in my Home. Simple Subject, I was doing my lawn and saw this image.

    Since Dandelion is considered a weed, plucked, and remove it. Placed it again some other flowers.

    ===============
    Nikon D850, Sigma 150 f/2.8 Macro
    Info 1/100s f/5.6 ISO800
    Manual; Matrix metering
    7 images Stacked together using Zerene Stacker.



    Post Processing:-

    Raw Processing using C1P 20
    Nik 25-25 Filter on Flower at reduced opacity
    Neat Image NR

    Some one once told me, "a weed is a wild flower in the wrong place", sounds pretty accurate eh? I like the flower head and the colours look really pleasing too. The stem could be toned down a little to make it appear less obvious, but a very appealing image.

    This is a stacked image (7 Shots).

    I did tone down the stem.

    A lovely shot of this overlooked flower. Or weed as most people consider it. Maybe just a touch tight all around. The stacking worked very well.
