While I know that the dandelion is often considered a pernicious weed, I think of it as the sky-flower. In the beginning, it resembles the sun; later, it looks like the moon; but close up, the moon is made of stars. Here it is in its night form. Using the Blue Tint effect and then taking levels to its extremes, its rendered down to its essence and looks like fireworks or some sort of cosmic stellar event.
