| [Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note |
| Colchicum antilibanoticum is a shy and beautiful plant blooming in October to early November in Mt Hermon and in the Anti-Lebanon mountains. It occurs together with 3 species of Crocus. The flowers appear normally without leaves, which appear much later after snow melts in April. In Israel it is a protected species. This pic was much too bright, raw corrected in Capture NX2. |

So beautifull the contrast between the dry and hard rocks against the sparkling fragile dreamlike flowers! Thanks, CarOze

Hi Ori,
I have already made a date with the Hermon Mt this coming spring.....I'm determined to get a look at its unique flora.Sadly didn't have time to explore the woods by my house on Sat. Have a good week.
Regards, David

Hi Ori,
I really like this composition, shows the habitat of the plants nicely. Good job of recovering most of the highlight detail, not too much was lost. That's a lighting situation that will give a reflected-light meter problems every time. When I'm doing "serious" photography, I carry a hand-held incident light meter with, seems to be more accurate in situations like that, but I think you'd still have to close down a little more than the meter indicates to keep from overexposing these white flowers in this setting.

Hi Ori,
