Spring Light, Goor, the Netherlands.
The last remains of mist resulted in beautiful light conditions. So I went to one of my favorite photo locations to make this photo. You will find more photos of the same road in my gallery, shot last winter and last autumn.
LA: Leucojum vernum
EN: Spring Snowflake
DE: Frühlings-Knotenblume / Märzenbecher
HU: Tavaszi tőzike
The spring snowflakes are becoming rare in the wild in Germany and in many countries due to the fact that their preferred living place: wetlands, mires, swamps, floodplain forests are disappearing.
In Germany it is a strongly protected plant, already on the Red List of endangered plants.
Another factor that "helped" the plant to get onto the Red List is the collectors who had been digging them up for sale or for their own gardens.
Typical of the plant is that 1-2 flowers can be seen per stem and the white petals have an orange, yellow or green spot.
The entire plant is poisonous.
These plants I found in the Maisinger Gorge, near Starnberg. The area is protected, as a water protection area. That means that any activities that can pollute the groundwater are forbidden. The beautziful little city of Starnberg at the Starnberger Lake gains its drinking water from this area.

A stretched spring on mountboard.
The image was taken outside on a sunny day in the UK, which helped to produce some deep shadows. I've boosted the contrast to give the photo an illustrative/abstract look.

I warned everyone, now here is a long series on the spring snowflakes.
Found them along the edges of the bog called Langer Filz, along the creek called Lindenbach. In the nature reserve, called Murnauer Moos, Bavaria, Germany.

Spring is in there somewhere! Little by little the snow is continuing to melt. The Crocus in my back yard are doing their best to bloom through the snow.
Used Photoshop to apply highlights.
