Gorgeous, the lighting enhances the color and richness of this short lived flower.

I hope you don't mind that I plan to include a photo in my answer to your beautiful flower photo, with a backlit flower on top of everything else, something that I love so! But it's not to outdo your photo (which mine never can!), it's just as a means of communication, so you will understand WHY I love your flower photos so much!
This is ALL I can offer you with regards to flowers from MY garden right now, and the snowdrops are in a deplorable state, too (photo from earlier today, just for you, Bruce):

Do you now understand why I crave all the colours in your flower and all the general spring pics so?

Thanks for your kindnesses, LaFoto. It does seem a bit dreary there for you still. At one time I lived in Detroit in the USA where it could easily look like your picture this time of year. Typically, it would be May before any real life was renewed.
