“Spring Passion”

Crocus flowers are among the first flowers of Spring, often emerging long before the danger of snow and freezing weather has passed. The genus Crocus is placed botanically in the iris family (Iridaceae). The plants grow from corms and are mainly hardy perennials, and are found in a wide range of habitats, including woodland, scrub and meadows.

To me our earth is the masterful creation of God, created and given to us by the greatest artist of all.
Being a photographer, I can only consider myself natures understudy.
All of the ORIGINAL ART is already there, just waiting to be discovered.
The creation inspires my lens, and I enjoy sharing what I see, and yes I copyright my impressions of the ORIGINAL ARTIST, and creator of all things…the God of all gods…..

  • Hi Lynn, I know what ya mean, the winter sure seen long! We just got a touch of snow, and a hard freeze, but these waxy flower are very hardy when it comes to the cold. I think this is the first time I have had them to bloom in Feb! But I am NOT complaining! Hugs Carolyn
