[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
Another photo from my short mountain trip. You can see my first photo from Bieszczadzki National Park here and another photo of Prmimula elatior in my WS here

Primula elatior, the oxlip (or True oxlip), can be found in nutient- and calcium-rich damp woods and meadows throughout Europe eastwards to Altai Mountains and as far north as Scandinavian Mountains in northern Norway and on the Kola Peninsula in Russia. In the British Isles, it is found only in the east, and mainly in East Anglia.
It is a low growing herbaceous perennial plant with a rosette of leaves 5-15 cm long and 2-6 cm broad. The deep yellow flowers are produced in the spring between April and May; they are in clusters of 10-30 together on a single stem 10-30 cm tall, each flower 9-15 mm broad

Witam Krzysztof
Fajny pierwiosnek wyniosły (ciekawa nazwa)
Workshop mi bardziej się podoba.
W tym kadrze trochę rozpraszają uwagę drzewa w tle.
Ciekawa notka.
Serdeczności

Hi Krzysztof . I like your low POV in this fine close up of the Primula elatior . This is the way to view this beautiful wild flower. Firstly i like the markings on the fresh leaves .
And the delicate flowers. Do you find the birds eat the flower heads . TFS.
Nick..

Hello Krzysztof,
A very fine capture of P. elator, a species of Primula absent in Sweden.
This is taken from a great low POV with excellent sharpness and is well composed with its habitat that is suitably OOF.
Thanks and best regards,
Ivan

Czesc Krzysiek!

Bardzo ladne, naturalne zdjecie pierwiosnkow. Podobaja mi sie zolte odcienie na tle ciagle jeszcze brunatnego tla. Wszystko jest strasznie spoznione tej wiosny. Ale miejmy nadzieje, ze w koncu sie ruszy - wczoraj spotkalem pierwsza wazke w tym roku!
