Crocus by if1

Crocus

363 - A few days ago I saw a shot of a crocus on our local newspaper website, so the search began to find a crocus that I could get a shot of. Most are not yet in bloom, but this solitary specimen was in Dean's Park, on the north side of York Minster. I loved it's variegated petals.
Well worth the search, beautiful shot!

Beautiful shot and great DOF. Interesting reflection on the N/S divide - there are quite a number of crocuses about down South.

Oh superb crocus Ian!

Great that you found one in bloom. Lovely macro shot. You have even caught the pollen spilling out onto the petals.
Looks like you had a nice day there yesterday. It was lovely up here yesterday but we are back to gloom and cold again today

Thank you all for your kind thoughts and comments. I am pleased with this shot - it's probably one of the best flower shots in my project, in my opinion.
