The Crocus is one of the first flowers to come up and bloom in Spring here in Parker. Always a joy to see them!

Morris: Oh I am SO jealous! We don't have crocus here so I love seeing shots of them in the gallery. The lighting here is beyond marvelous as are the colors. Many kudos.>=))>

Morris with the dark background this flower fairly leaps of the page, and wildly colorful stamens. Neat.

Morris, it is amazing the way you show the freshness of the flower arising from the dark!

Lovely image Morris. I really like the way you able to use the lighting to isolate the subject.

I agree with the others--good use of the dark bg so the bloom just glows!

Beautiful presentation, Morris. The colors really pop, yet there is an appealing floral softness you've maintained.
