What a Difference a Year Makes 2

This is another shot from about this time last year. In some patches of dirt, I am starting to see some little green blades poking up - but we are still a ways out from being able to shoot Crocus photos!

Any and all thoughts appreciated.

Excellent, Nathan. I like this a lot. devil

(Ok, one very minor suggestion: maybe clone out the two orange dots at the top?)

Nathan: Really nice. Oh how I envy your crocus but I don't think I envy your snow and cold angel

. I agree with Scott regarding the BG orange spots. >=))>

This is lovely, Nathan. Love the delicacy of the petal tones, and the composition works really well On my monitor the yellows look a touch dark, but maybe you wanted a slightly subdued effect. Whatever, this is a fine image.

Thanks everyone. Bill and Scott...I was on the fence about cloning those out. Thanks for pushing me off the top and onto the correct side! enlightened
