The first sign of spring: a few tiny snow crocuses open in the warming light.

Spring

Spring has sprung earlier than usual this year. One of the first signs is the sprouting of these tiny snow crocuses (croci?) The photo was taken with the iPhone using the Hipstamatic app.

We finally have flowers blooming oustide! There's a smattering of truly teensy snow crocuses beside the walk to the back door; and on the other side of the driveway is this lone slightly larger crocus. I have no idea how it got there. We've lived here since 1981, and there's never been a crocus there before. I prefer the original photo, but a combination of Watercolor and Smudge Stick delineates the details, especially in the center.
