@MrsAmber: My pleasure! :)

Always a favorite, and these have nice markings on the petals.

@observing: This year we have sort of a happening, where no less than five million crocuses shall bloom here, distributed all over the city.

Beautiful light and colors!

@Jen: Cheers, Jen!

What beautiful detail and lighting here. The lighting makes the crocuses look like they are lights and are "turned on" against the muted background.

@Steven: There are lots of these colourful spots in the city right now. The daffodils are slowly starting to wilt, though.

We have a zillion of those too! This is beautiful, the stripes and the sunlight. I get a warm feeling when I look at it.

@Shrig: There are lots more - I love them all! :-)

I'm never tired with crocus shot... light shows well to advantage the lovely vivid colors, a pleasure for my eyes.

@Evelyne Dubos: This year everything flowers at the same time, probably because of our very cold and long winter.

A fascinating, and very nicely captured, photograph.
