Some very tiny, very strange purple flowers (Lamium purpureum) backed up by a dandelion to show the size.
Looks like spring is getting started here where I live :0)

All comments and critique welcome and appreciated.

Thanks Chris (coram9) for the ID on the little purple ones.

Superb details and colour on these lovelies, DP! Most people detest Dandelions... especially when they are invading their yards! However, close up... they really are quite beautiful! I especially like the angle on the Dandelion and the ever so delicate look to the purple flower and it's furriness! :) Oh, and a perfect background to really show them off! Excellent work! :)

I too have a thing for dandelions. They do not look immediately beautiful, unlike roses or some other flowers, but they can be very photogenic in their different stages of life and death. The other flower is, I think, what we would call a dead nettle.

To be spontaneous one must practice it.

Lovely shot. Both flowers with different colours compliment each other very well.
