Beauty of Nature Photography Competition - 1st Place

Congratulations to Angi Wallace from Tyne & Wear, England with the winning image entitled 'Crocuses'

Angi tells us "The Crocus photograph -

This spring I spotted the most beautiful, vibrant Crocus I have ever seen and just had to by several pots to plant in our garden, they are called Crocus "Firefly" and I don't think I have ever taken so many photographs of a group of flowers. I experimented with a range of lenses over a couple of weeks. This image was taken on my Sony A7ii with a Meyer Gorlitz Primoplan lens paired with extension tubes to allow me to get in closer - I love the dreamy, softness this lens can give, very much like some Lensbay lenses."
