How beautiful! I love how the light and sparse colours indicate the new growth and the snow and chill still lingering in the mountains, while the promise and hope of the new season is so well expressed by the flower (whose name I don't know in English).

I'm so glad that you enjoy it. The flower was at first intended to be a snowdrop, but it needed to be a more vibrant bloom, I decided. So, I hope that it is a crocus!
