My, my, but you have been busy this weekend! The sculpture park is an amusing idea. That would be a neat visit. But this one here stirred something deep inside me. The crocus is usually the first flower I notice after our Chicago winters. It is like a beacon of hope, announcing warmer weather and lots more flowers on their way.
That was brilliant! I don't think we have crocuses (or croci???) at this time of the year, so I'll have to wait until spring before I can try to match this on.
Your Photos were amazing today! I loved them, like always. How is the weather??? It has been extremely hot here. 106 this weekend. I don't see it cooling off for a few weeks yet! YES I am a little tired of the heat. I want to open up my windows and turn off the air-conditioner!
Ahhhh haaaa...:)) Thank you, imac. I learn something new...not every day, but every hour!! Thank you for the information. Your photographs are always lovely. I enjoy being here. Jackie
This is a beautiful shot imac. Autumn Crocus is not a 'real' Crocus. In Denmark it is called 'Nøgen Jomfru' directly translated to 'Naked Virgin'. The latin name is 'Colchicum autumnale'
That's beautiful - I didn't know they could grow in autumn! I had to look them up - apparently they are in danger of extinction as they have medicinal properties. I'll need to keep an eye open for them.
What a beautiful crocus. We don't have any autumn crocus. I need to rectify that!
ReplyDeleteWhat a fantastic shot this is.... love it. A beautiful image for sure.
ReplyDeleteThis would make one stunning card Imac..

ReplyDeleteFabulous shot! Soooooo beautiful!
ReplyDeleteI LOVE Autumn crocus. They seem to come up from out of no where.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful crocus. I don't have them here this time of year. We do have them in the springtime. I like the colors too. Mine are white as I recall.
ReplyDeleteThank you very much for visiting My Canon Blog and for the comment you left me there about my portrait. My Canon Blog
