Are you sure that's a crocus Mike? Whatever, you have made a really beautiful job of its portrait. Top dollar

It's interesting that I don't miss the color in this shot. Fine detail in the flower and wonderful toning make it very effective.

Superb processing Mike ~ ~ i may have been tempted to give it a square crop around the Crocus to eliminate the right hand side >>>

@LESLIE: Indeed, a good idea Les.
