Ah, the equisite delicacy of wood anemones – also called wind flowers, among other common English names. Which somewhat links to my post today, Ann-Christine, and the music of Edward Elgar. In later life, though still married, he had a passion for a young woman who became his muse. He called her Wind Flower.

Anemone nemorosa. One of the first flowers of spring. Great shot !
Thank you – and yes, they are one of the first to brighten up in the cold!

Thank you for the story behind wind flowers – a beautiful one, just as could be expected for these beautiful flowers. And Elgar – we still play him!
I especially like the light and shadows here, A-C.
