[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
Cyclamen graecum is a very variable species with a wild distribution which includes the southern parts of the mainland of Greece, most of the Peloponnese, the Saronic Islands, the Sporades, the islands of the eastern Aegean, Crete, Rhodes, the south coast of Turkey, and part of the north of Cyprus. It is at home on stable screes and other rocky habitats, and is happy growing both in deep pine needle litter and the hardest of conglomerates. Its altitude ranges from sea level where it can be found within a couple of metres of the high water mark, to 1200m. (Source here)

Saturation, light and contrast added.

Il se plaît sur les sols rocailleux, les aiguilles de pins…On le retrouve depuis le niveau de la mer, où il peut être trouvé à quelques mètres du niveau de l’eau, jusqu’à 1200 mètres.
