[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
The rains are really late this year and only yesterday did I take my first walk down into the woods by my house.Everything is still pretty dry with just a few Saffrons to ensure us that autumn is actually here.I decided to walk back via my traditional track when I surprisingly came across some Cyclamens at the same spot where I saw the first ones last year.For some reason this spot starts well before any of the others!

One of my favorite flowers and so I am happy to share it with you - Common Cyclamen.

Hi David,
The clean and pure forms of this flower makes it so exquisite and wonderful.
I like very much your POV and proper exposure to get this clear image.
The spot of color at the base is a great and subtle color accent to the composition.
Congratulations and thnaks for share it.
My best regards,
JM

Nice picture, very sharp against a perfectly unsharp background.
Colors look very natural.

TFS!

Hi David,
A really smart flower. Perfect exposure, dof, pov and composition. For sure this flower does not grow where I live :-)

Hi David,
I really like the simplicity of this composition. Excellent depth of field and focus with a perfect amount of light. The angle you have taken it from makes the bloom look like a shy lady! Beautiful work.
