Thinkin' 'bout Spring

SP Friday

February 24

Davidson County, TN

This woodland patch along Highway 70 in Nashville is always one of the first
Narcissus patches to bloom. I watch these in anticipation of spring each
year. This patch popped up through a deer skeleton from this past year.

In Greek Mythology, Narcissus was a beautiful youth who pines away for love
of his own reflection in a spring and is tranformed into the Narcissus
plant. These happen to habitate a spring fed stream bank :)

This is quite a photo. There is a lot to see in it.
Narcissus patch... much better than waiting for the ground hog to see his shadow.

we in the north are gaining confidence that spring will work it's way to us now

Can't get over the mix of weather you seem to have, nice use of dof and almost looks like it could have been shot in a studio
