I don't think I'll ever get enough crocuses (croci?

) !!! In this case the morning light is magnificently captured - for some reason it transports me back to a warm breezy childhood day, far away and long ago

Hi Ian,

Our snow finall melted and I saw a few bees trying to rob my honey bee hives on Sunday. I have not seen any crocuses so far! The purples and patterns of light and dark are very nice features of the image

Ian: This is a home run for me! Marvelous light and a fine DOF/POF choice. Most excellent! >=))>

Hi Ian, always beautiful your crocuses. If it was mine (most improbable as I never took a decent photo of crocuses) I would try to lower the highest lights and check if there is a small red dominant; just a try. Anyway an excellent image Ian.

Ahh, the morning crocus chorus, singing of the sun's glory. You've created a fine sense of a large group here, Ian.
