White Yarrow
Wikipedia states that a weed is any plant that is considered by the user of the term to be a nuisance. To some this field is considered a nuisance while I think it is a work of art. I also like how the wind is blurring some of the flowers.
I came across a good read and wanted to pass this along.

Monte, the classification of this as a weed or flower is also dependent upon the moment in a persons life. Years ago on my fathers farm this was most certainly a weed, today as a photographer it’s more a flower. Our view upon the world changes as we do, as we grow and change ourselves. Thanks for the opportunity to ponder.
Glad you enjoy pondering. Most people do not like dandelions but there is nothing as pretty as a large open meadow in Wisconsin covered with them. And, I’m not sure what it is, a white yarrow?
I couldn’t agree more Monte. The weed is in the eye of the beholder. I believe those who look at items others disregard as a nuisance and find beauty and art instead live a much richer life because of it.
Even the dandelion is enjoyable to me. Living in your grasslands most likely helps you to enjoy all those flowers.
