Beautiful photo. I like the simpleness of it and the DOF. I really need to start using the Manual setting on my point and shoot for some more creative shots.
@hankinsphoto Thanks, Steve. I don't remember seeing the little green dot on each petal before. Apparently I have never payed that close attention before!
@jennwearing That is the name of the flower. They are a bulb plant and come up early in the spring. Maybe they come up before the snow is all gone, although we seldom have snow here, and that is how they got their name?
Yeah, we may not get any snow this winter. Wow. We usually get a little bit....it is almost spring now I think. Today was out of this world warm and clear. I loved it. I cannot wait to take photos in the spring! These flowers are lovely...did not know about the green spots on the petals...
@espyetta We had a nice day as well. I don't feel we ever really had winter unless it hits us later this month! I didn't notice the green dots on them last year either but I am sure they were there. I just see things differently this year!
these were my Gma's fav flowers...they are so delicate...and you have captured that well...and i love when taking a pic of something makes you see something you've never seen before (like those dots)...very cool
