“A thing of beauty is a joy forever.”

~ John Keats (Endymion: A Poetic Romance)

 

Scilla siberica / Siberian squill or wood squill (German: Nickende Sternhyazinthe / Blausternchen = Little Blue Star);

when backlit they get lovely lilac / purple hues

 

I always look forward to these tiny stars; it has become kind of a tradition for me to photograph them at the beginning/middle of March. This year they seem to be about one / two weeks late, just beginning to bloom
