Spring Snowflake (+PiPs)

So far this year I have been unable to find any decent looking Snowdrops to photograph. However, my neighbour has a lovely patch of Spring Snowflakes in her garden, which I was allowed to access.

These are much easier for me to photograph as they grow taller than snowdrops and I don't have to get so low down :-))

There are a couple more shots in the PiPs including a close up look at the inside of the flower (for which I used my 60mm macro lens).

I love these snowflakes Keith. I have seen so many snowdrops this year, even along the banks of main roads, but I haven't yet seen any snowflakes. All three pictures are equally beautiful and no accidents this time :-)

Have a good new week Keith.

They are just lovely, 3 excellent shots! Good on you being able to go down so low as to get these photos, I doubt my knees would like that;-)

Somewhat similar to our snowdrops at first glance Keith. Soon to be dispelled of course :) Another great set from you and when you do close-up -you mean it! Well done.

Cheers. Herb

These are simply stunning Keith. I love these snowdrops whereby the edges of the petals have a green splodge on the white. So pretty.
