First Sign of Spring

Uploaded: March 17, 2009

Description

I was quite happy to come home from work just in time to see this reminder that winter is almost over. I had to clear away some leaves to find this hidden treasure, and of course I ran right inside to grab my camera!

Happy St. Patrick's Day to all my friends...now to check on the corned beef and cabbage!

1/125s at f/5.6 ISO 200 50mm macro lens.
