PULSATILLA HALLERI

Pasque Flower
Hallers Küchenschelle
Anémone pulsatille

Family: Ranunculaceae
Tribe: Anemoneae
Genus: Potentilla
Species:Potentilla halleri

The different pulsatilla species appear in Spring, especially in montain-regions and are characterized by their purple and hairy appearance.
The species "halleri" is named after the famous Swiss scientist Albrecht von Haller (1708-1777). He was doctor of medicine and was a lecturer for botany, anatomy and surgery at the German University of Göttingen.
I have taken this picture in our Botanical Garden, these flowers appearing only after the snowmelt in the alpine regions. Actually there is still a lot of snow on higher altitudes and the Pasque Flowers will appear end of April and beginning of May.

Hallo Anne!

Ich warte ungeduldig darauf, die Küchenschelle in den Bergen betrachten zu dürfen. Ich glaube, ich habe Dir schon einmal gesagt, dass sie zu meinen Lieblingsblumen gehört. Dein Bild ist sehr schön, mit vielen Details und einer feinen Belichtung.

As Grüessli

Splendid Anne !

Nice photo.
A new look gorgeous with a great landscape.
Some splendid colors.
If one was to go to Berne to an earlier announcement. I would do great, great pleasure and we can talk personally.
Today I wish to expose another picture from Switzerland.
Have a good day,
Adrian

Hi Anne,
Beautiful capture, with very nice and soft colors and great low POV. In my personal opinion I would have preferred keeping the center-right of the frame in focus than the left.

Hello Anne,
una splendida immagine di questa bellissima pulsatilla, mi piace molto il taglio stretto su questo meraviglioso gruppo di fiori con le rocce a fare da sfondo, colori delicati e ottima definizione; unico disturbo, non dal punto di vista naturalistico, ma solo perchè distolgono leggermente l'attenzione, i ciuffi scuri di muschi in alto sulle rocce, comunque sono parte integrante di questo meraviglioso habitat.
TFS.
Buona serata
Maurizio

Ciao Anne, lovely composition with beautiful flowers, splendid light and wonderful colors, very well done, ciao Silvio

Einfach wundervoll, Anne, diese Blumen sind so schön - uns so toll haarig - ich habe tatsächlich noch niemals eine Kuhschelle in der Natur gesehen, das ist schade.
Danke, richtig bezaubernd, Gruß

Hello Anne!
This is a wonderful capture of these beautiful Pasque flowers. I love your composition and their colours look so beautiful against the grey rocks in the background. Very well done!
A lovely warm spring day here which brought out the first butterflies.

Hi Anne,

You captured the flowers very well with excellent lighting and fine detail. However, there is some imbalance between the left (empty) and right (filled) ends of the picture. Small flaw...

TFS,

Ishi

Hy Anne
I love all Pulsatilla and I am sad that I think that here I cannot find them. I like the hairy aspect of the plants and the strong colors of the flowers.This group of flowers against the rocks is well chosen. Thanks for sharing this picture.
All the best, Oana

Salut Anne,mais quel magnifique point de vue! Excellent idee' at parfaite realisation,aussi la lumiere a ete' decisive pour avoir un resultat si parfait!! Mes plus gros compliments,bon Vendredi,Luciano

Hola Anne, una preciosa fotografía que lleva tu sello. Es impresionante y bello el efecto visual que conseguiste con los desenfoques, la vertical de las plantas y como no, por la captura de esas tonalidades. Excelente trabajo bajo mi punto de vista.

Hi Anne !
A splendid capture some excellent colors.
Congratulations and expect and more.
Have a nice day,
Chris

Hallo Anne,
Wunderbarer Blumenstrauß, sehr schön fotografiert. Mir gefallen die Farben sehr gut
Viele Grüße aus dem sonnigen Darmstadt,

Hallo Anne
An absolute delight to look and admire these beautiful flowers and even more delightful because they are in the colour I love so much. The fine hairs on the stems and the light caught behind the flowers is really great and makes this a perfect pretty picture. Very pleasant sight of a bunch of these flowers all together. Beyond beautiful.
Have a lovely weekend. Kind regards.
Anna

Bonjour Anne,
Tu sembles savoir attendre suffisamment de temps afin de faire une (très agréable) publication de masse !!!
L'arrière-plan est très judicieux et provoque une excellente opposition valorisant bien la finesse des détails et la délicatesse des couleurs des sujets sous une belle lumière et une bonne profondeur de champ.
A bîentôt sur TN pour de nouvelles aventures.
Gérard

Hallo Anne,
ein ganz ganz feines Bild, diese Pulsatillen. Ich interessiere mich nicht sehr für reine Pflanzenaufnahmen, aber hier zeigst Du nicht nur Pflanzen, sondern Deine ganze Kunstfertigkeit. Das Licht! Die Komposition! Poetin Anne.

PS: Ich habe mich über Euren Besuch bei der Reiseerzählung (TE!) sehr gefreut, und dann war erst noch Deine ganze Familie da (bei meiner fehlten Einige). Ab Ende Mai bin ich für gemeinsame TN- Exkursionen zu haben.

Herzlich grüsst Dich
Dieter

Bonjour Anne,
Speldide bouquet de Pulsatilles. J'aime beaucoup l'éclairage latérale, qui fait ressortir la pilosité soyeuse de la plante. Les couleurs sont très naturelles et agréables.
Amicalement
Hervé

Hi Anne,
