Crocus display

There is currently a lovely display of crocus blooms in Saltaire's Roberts Park - though they did look to have been trampled a bit, either by idiots or idiots' dogs. Some people just can't bear things looking nice, can they? I was bored so I ran the image through some filters to intensify the colours. Just playing... The flowers actually form a rough heart-shape, with yellow in the centre and a purple edge, though the purple runs out at the front, again probably due to people walking over the plants when they are pushing up. There's a railing but it doesn't stop people taking a short cut down to the river. The colour is a nice reminder that spring is on the way.

  2. The crocus flowers look perfectly lovely! Here we have (of course) little signs: "Die Schneetropfchen bitte nicht betreten!" The Schweineberg forest floor is covered with them.
