Crocuses

The City Daily Photo Blog context is very comfortable to work within. One can look at those things that make one's city unique and identifiable but one is also free to examine those things that are more universal. I've tended to focus more on Victoria-specific subjects and in this second year of blogging I want to try my hand at subjects that, while they are set in Victoria, are not unique or specific to Victoria. I am also interested in making pictures rather than just taking pictures. For me this means more effort spent in setting up the photo before clicking the shutter but also doing a little more work after the shutter has been clicked.

Bravo for turning that corner. I yearn to do that myself. This photo is just beautiful. I look forward to seeing where your new direction takes you. May I tag along?

I love that the crocus (or is it crocii, I don't think so!) are so sharp, so in focus and the background is not. Many congratulations on your recent anniversary and one year birthday! A big milestone and looking forward to more of your beautiful photographs. I look forward to seeing your new direction, Benjamin.

Walker, thanks.

Virginia, you're most welcome to tag along. Maybe I'll post some of pictures I took in Paris in 1963....

Thanks Jacob, Jonathan and Jilly.
