Description October - the month that starts with summer and closes with winter. In between, we can experience wonderfully quiet moments, when the sun, becoming weaker from day to day, still manages to wake up those little beauties that finally illuminate the dying garden. Such as these flowers of Crocus goulimyi, from Greece.

Beautiful! I never knew crocuses bloom in spring and fall. I saw a bunch this past fall and could not figure out why they were blooming.

Nice, Kevin! Sharp, but soft, perhaps a soft focus lens?

No, I used a standard lens but I tried to get as much sunlight as possible, softened by diffuse reflection.

Thank you very much, Walt!

Thank god I understand about 1/1000 the physics you know! Mine is about a 10e3 x the average persons.

Oh noes, I believe that you know almost as much as me, concerning physics. The "average person", however - hm, sometimes I really worry about those gaps in knowledge ... Let's better display such things in a logarithmic diagram. They look much nicer then.

Tomorrow I'll start another curriculum in physics, for assistant medical technicians. Guess what? I'll first explain the rule of three!

Simply beautiful. What a lovely treat for the end of the season. Crocuses are one of the first ones to peak through in the Springtime here.

Thank you very much, Candace!

Most people only know the spring crocusses but in fact, they can flower from September to April, depending on the species. So you can have crocus flowers even around Christmas, if the climate isn't too harsh in your area!
