February Spring Crocus Bloom

This shot was taken on Tuesday which was very springlike with unbroken sunshine and temperatures up to 10C or 50F. The location was a small green off the Aldwick Road in Bognor Regis, UK. The crocus there were the first I have seen this year.

The image is formed from a Stack of 20 images all at slightly different focus and stacked in Photoshop. The principal edits were Topaz HDR, Topaz Denoise and levels. Full details of the focus stacking and editing can be found in my Blog see - http://edwinjonesphotography.com/blog/2015/2/february-spring-crocus-bloom

The camera used was a Sony A550 with a Sigma 28-80 zoom with a macro function at 80mm. Taken on a mini Tripod.
