Bloodroot
The first wildflower I’ve seen this spring, from a few days ago:
They came up early this year. For this one, the idea was to use shallow depth of field the view the center through the petals. I saw my first butterflies of the season last weekend as well…

Very nice photo. I love the soft feel.
You can tell that guy has been sleeping for awhile.
I saw butterflies, too! What a GREAT weekend it was. Supposed to be 80 today – woo hoo! Lovely capture, Tom. You do macro so well. 🙂
I couldn’t believe it, I saw a few this past weekend – earliest ever for me.
