Crocus in yellow

It was a beautiful day here in the Maritimes, with temps reaching a +10 c (50F). This morning while trying to get a good angle on the flowers, I laid on the damp grass. Some days I wish my camera had a flip screen.

Haha well I'm sorry about having to lay on the damp grass, but it made for this beautiful shot! Lovely crocus image :)

[Peter Grave]

Wonderful shot Nova.If you had a flip screen you,d miss all the fun of lying on the grass and people wondering whether you are on something or drunk !! lol

[Peter Day]

It is not the lying on the grass, it is the getting back on your feet that counts.

[Babs]

Super shot, well worth lying on damp grass to capture this.

[Daniela Russo]

Gorgeosus pov! well worth th trouble of lying down!

[Kerry McCarthy]

Wonderful shot! Love the pov, dof and beautiful vibrant spring colors!

Well worth your horizontal time in the damp grass, Nova...this pov is beautiful! The cheery color of the crocuses really pops against the beautifully blurred background. I can tell you're enjoying your new 50mm. I got mine in 2013, and it opened up a whole new world. I love it!

You got a great pov in this shot, and the crocuses are nicely framed by the tree--worth lying in the damp grass! Nice sc too. Fav for me.

Thank you so much for stopping by and sharing your kind words and favs. It was a nice surprise to see it on the PP with many of your great shots as well. Good thing I got this shot before we received 2 inches of snow, which I am not willing to lie on.

It's another busy day for me, as my mom is coming to town today and I get to spend the day with her, while her car is being repaired. Have a great day and I'll have time tomorrow to catch up with your project. :)
