About Many people get this flower mixed up for a crocus. In fact it is a naked lady (colchicum) and it has an opposite destiny. The crocus blooms in spring when the snow leaves the wet mountains, when plants and grass begin to live again. The naked ladies spring up with their flowers in autumn when grass and plants begin to die and the snow is almost coming again.
This flower have no leaves, it jumps out from the earth completely naked; hence its English name, I suppose.

Maurizio, anch'io trovo bella e giusta la tua similitudine con il mare in tempesta, con le creste delle onde bianche. E anch'io non ho fumato nulla.
Ciao.

Well seen, Giuseppe! Your description is fascinating. I like this style of composition of a random patterned background, super sharp, graced by a single burst of contrasting colour.

Gabriela, see what I saw before pressing the button: a large place all covered with a carpet of damp, worn-out, gray-haired grass; in an angle was lost alone the only point of colour, weak, naked, unable to stand straight. No wonder that you catch the melancholy in this image.
I picked up the flower and put it in a glass with water at a windowsill. It became straight and strong and bloomed beautifully for some good days.
I like the way you wright. Have a serene weekend Monika.

A work that very clearly makes the subjective visibility and successful presentation of the author.

Il nome comune è colchico. Sono splendidi perchè colonizzano interi prati di montagna. Dì a tuo cugino che non deve vergognarsi. Ho provato a chiederlo ad un montanaro del posto e anche lui mi ha risposto che erano crochi!
Grazie Alessandro.
Ciao.

Bellissimo fiore..stupenda luce, il rosa e l'argento dei fili d'erba contrastano magicamente..

Poco fa mio cugino Emanuele un giorno che eravamo a casa nostra in montagna, fine settembre credo, mi disse che questi erano i crocus autunnali..che anche lui aveva da poco scoperto la loro esistenza..io non li avevo mai visti..c'erano i prati pieni di questi fiorellini rosa..bellissimi..
Vedremo cosa dirà quando vedrà questo scatto..;)

Ma il nome volgare in italiano com'è?

A presto, Ale

So sweet and delicate, Guiseppe, this lovely but lonely lady slipping up from among the sweeping grasses. Beautifully composed!:)

The quality of the grass is outstanding!The sheaths glimmer here and there silvery as if touched by the moonlight. And the naked lady venturing for a look outside.....Is she the one singing the autumn song?I see in this image a melancholic statement of longing.Beautiful creation, Giuseppe!
Regards,
Gabriela

Giuseppe...
Very cool idea. I think that the name of the flower is very pretty:)
Such a flower - individualist:)
The great contrast of colours and the excellent sharpness of grass.
I am greeting you cordially:)

Grazie Barbara, sono contento che ti piaccia. Sono venuto a farti visita e ho realmente gustato le tue foto. Hai un fine occhio fotografico e mi piacciono molto i tuoi angoli, geometrie e composizioni. Tornerò. Ciao.

Mi piace la composizione con questo fiore isolato che sbuca tra l'erba, una curva tra altre curve. E' molto bello anche l'accostamento di colori, il viola tra i fili argentati.
Ciao Barbara
