Blue Anemone

Anemone apennina

I'm not sure why, but immediately around here this year we are seeing so many more of these blue anemones than their close cousins the wood anemone.  Very beautiful, don't you think?

Anyway, the shot was bagged fairly early this morning as I've spent most of the day with friends - which is lovely but never seems to me the moment to get out the camera.  So I didn't.

Hope you've all had a beautiful blue-sky Saturday and I wish you the same for tomorrow  xx
