Beautiful metal object. Maybe changing th depth of field to blur more of the background would have highlighted th texture and form of the wheel. Also it would be a litle nicer to have the full wheel , too bad it's cropped at top.

Finally, getting my ducks in a row.

Flat, unexciting.

Hmmm.....Should my wish be for a better camera ...or lens?

I�m amazed at all the comments about not seeing the decision in my entry.

First of all no one sees a decision. The decision is not visible. Only the cause and effects. You may see the choices before during or after a decision. But the decision is in the mind.

2nd as a child you should have been told to make a wish before you blow on the dandelion plume. If you were never told you were cheated when you were young.

Please check out this link. //www.flowgo.com/funpages/view.cfm/11793

The next time you pick up a dandelion plume make a wish before you blow. That brief moment when you�re staring at the plume and making up your mind on what to wish for it what is captured in this photo.

I did not realize how many never heard of this wishing opportunity. I knew the shot was not a great shot. It was entered because I thought it would be fun to remind a lot of you of your childhood memories. I never expected such a low score because they never knew about making a wish on a dandelion.

For those that got it I hope you enjoyed it. And thanks for the two �Favorite� votes on the entry.

Make your decision on what you will wish for.

Dandylions gone to seed are a popular favorite subject at DPC. They are hard to get right but you have succeeded very well.

I'd choose a better lens, though this picture came out quite well. However, if not for the title, I would definitely see no decision here. Many of the pictures in this challenge had the same problem.
