Fairies dancing on gossamer?

[Fangman]

Perhaps there are fairies after all. Saw these and thought of the fairy clock

Fairies like to tell the time as well as the children puffing and counting!

I really like that first one...the fibres of the flower look so soft and fluffy

reminds me of Fantasia.

The background in the first seems kind of odd. was it heavily cropped?

I dont like the dof on the second. It may have worked better if you picked all of the whisps off the front, then took a pic of the core? It just seems like there is a star burst effect happening there.
