Spring Flora

There is a very special old Dorset lane within cycling distance of where I live. On the way past today (26th April 2015) I spotted a wonderful springtime collection of wild flowers. I went back in the afternoon with my camera.

I think a drop of water on this flower head would have improved this shot.
