    1-Victoria New dawn, new day....a dawn in spring, perfectly fits the theme-awakenings, and a gorgeous pic.


    2-Woo In the Pink...........the first blossom of Spring, a double awakening


    3-Ivory Breaking through............new grass surrounded by the dead grass, almost like re awakening. The light coming through the blades is gorgeous.


    But the set of pics is gorgeous and really hard to choose from-those crocus pics -I wish we could choose our top 5

    1 - Victoria - New dawn..
    This photo really holds me. Despite blown highlights, lens flare and power line it's got such great depth and warmth. I'd very happily have this as a giant print on the wall!

    2- Snappers - Root of the Topic.
    Captured the monthly theme perfectly with a very unusual and creative take on the subject.Sharp and crisp as it gets too!

    3- Capney - Time to emerge.
    'Heave Ho and up she rises!' You can almost hear the soil being pushed aside as the bean shoot emerges
