This is our garden's first flower of the year. It appeared only a week after unusually cold and long-lasting sub-zero temperatures finally left. This plant, along with several others, is in a pot and was moved inside during the deep-freeze.
Photography notes:
This image was constructed from 36 images, each with a slight change in focus. The result is an image similar to one made with a very small aperture except it avoids the focus-softening effect of diffraction.
The computer background image has had the right side stretched to lengthen the image to fit its format.
