Autumn flowering Crocus speciosus. I planted these bulbs 10 years ago. And each year I am enchanted. So beautiful, so sasha."[C. speciosus] is infinitely worth growing, all its ways are seemly, all its forms lovely." - Louise Beebe Wilder, Adventures with Hardy Bulbs (1936)
"... the first autumnal [crocus] to flower, and ... always startling when it comes bubbling through the earth, innocent of leaves, usually after a warm rain in late September." -LBW

Nice shot. What lens? Is the light coming from the SE?
The big telephoto - sigma? I'm not happy with the focus. I should try the new 50 mm lens. Photo was taken in the mid-afternoon, so sun was more toward the west.
