So, it took almost all my time to get both me and the flower on the same fotograf. do you know why? because every time i went to the tripod, whole bunch of sheep sneaked up to the dandelion and tried to eat it! EVERY TIME! so, most of the time i was explaining to the sheep *NOT* to eat the dandelion. But it worked just as long i was sitting there, right when i walked up to camera &#8211; out of nowhere &#8211; new sheep came along, hehe! Not so easy to fotograf dandelions with the hungry sheep sneaking around!<br \/>\nbut i did lots of other fun things, while on vacation. i also took some more fotografs, so i will try to post them next time. until then, let me know if u have taken any gr8 fotografs recently? have fun and cu l8r!<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.ikeathegiraffe.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/08\/DSC_9044.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-1562\" title=\"DSC_9044\" src=\"http:\/\/www.ikeathegiraffe.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/08\/DSC_9044-1024x680.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"620\" height=\"411\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.ikeathegiraffe.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/08\/DSC_9044-1024x680.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.ikeathegiraffe.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/08\/DSC_9044-300x199.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 620px) 100vw, 620px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<div id=\"tweetbutton1560\" class=\"tw_button\" style=\"float: right;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/twitter.com\/share?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ikeathegiraffe.com%2Fblog%2Fwhere-ikea-finds-a-dandelion%2F&amp;via=ikeathegiraffe&amp;text=..%20where%20Ikea%20finds%20a%20dandelion&amp;related=&amp;lang=en&amp;count=horizontal\" class=\"twitter-share-button\"  style=\"width:55px;height:22px;background:transparent url('https:\/\/www.ikeathegiraffe.com\/blog\/wp-content\/plugins\/wp-tweet-button\/tweetn.png') no-repeat  0 0;text-align:left;text-indent:-9999px;display:block;\">Tweet<\/a><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Hello there!
