Tragopogon Close-up

This plant (a.k.a. goatsbeard or salsify) which looks like a giant dandelion was lit beautifully by the late evening sun. I love the softness so I used a shallow depth of field to keep some of the seeds looking soft around the outside with detail towards the center. This was shot with Canon EOS M 55-200mm F4.5-6.3, @200mm f/6.3, 1/1600.
