It stands there in all its grace - a single pasque flower, also known botanically as Pulsatilla vulgaris. This photograph focuses on the delicate beauty of this protected wild plant: the purple petals are open, the golden yellow stamen inside glows in the soft sunlight. A delicate interplay of light, shadow and fine hairs gives this spring flower an almost fairytale-like quality.
The pasqueflower is one of the first heralds of spring in meagre, sunny meadows. Its slightly inclined flowers grow directly from a low, mostly furry rosette - a natural protection against the cold at night. This photo also shows the velvety pubescence, which catches the light in a special way and literally envelops the calyx.
