Hepatica nobilis

Hepatica nobilis, one of the first flowers of spring.

Thanks for your comments!

Beautiful indeed.

You have created an emotive color contrast warm/cold.
I try to tell a personal consideration: the soft echo touching the main subject disturbs the simplicity and the mysterious atmosphere of the photo, that is what I love more (here as in many other your floral images). It's only my of course. Anyway, I love the photo, in harmony with the style of your floral folder.

Dear Philip,

This is beautifully conceived and executed! The tones are very special as is your creative use of focus. Wonderful!

Tim
