 Pictures taken at an abandoned farm on the outskirts of the city. I didn't set out to take pictures for the challenge, just for my blog. But when I was taking the pictures I remembered the Bokeh challenge. Then I thought it would be cool to have one white crocus among the purple ones so I picked the white/stripey crocus from another patch and stuck it in the purple patch. Took a ton of pictures and liked this one the best.

I love this shot -- I thought it should have ribboned. I would not have thought to plant the outcast among the purples. Nor would I thought of tilting the horizon slightly. Nice work.

this seems to have it all...foreground, background and ooooey goooooey. You probably got an extra point from me just because it's a crocus...I sooooo miss the flowers of the North...
