Bursting into spring by gilbertwood

Bursting into spring

Spotted this poppy this morning about to burst open. Then 10 minutes later it was open and the pod on the ground. If I'd known how close it was to bursting, I would have sat and watched it :) Thanks all for visiting my last few photos. I really appreciate your lovely comments and favs. I'm pushed for time at the moment so really try to view everyone's photos as I really enjoy doing that. Off to Melbourne again for the next 3 weekends!
Super close up.

@gilbertwood I've never seen whales before so I was VERY happy. In fact, I decided it was my lovely Mum visiting us as a surprise ;)

@gigiflower Yes and it was probably my mum telling her to surprise you :) It's so nice to meet someone else who has "visions' of their mum in unusual ways. My mother gave me the moon :)

Beautiful shot, still great timing even if you missed it dropping. I hope you have a nice weekend here in Melbourne. The weather is going to be fantastic.

@thresheg @seattlite @hermann Thanks for your wonderful comments. This is it's actual colour - no tinkering with it!
@karlow75 Thanks Kane. Yes, tomorrow's weather is going to be terrific everywhere! I have a rushed trip to Melb this weekend - down & back Saturday!

Super macro. Would have been fun to see the pod pushed off. Great detail and bokeh in the background.

Great close up Denise.

A wonderful close up - too bad we can't know 10 minutes is all we need to see the next stage. Waiting never works for me either.
