Ranunculus asiaticus

Having just added a theme showing my pictures from our holiday on Cyprus last year, I discovered a few more not yet posted on TN. This first one I’d like to dedicate to my friend Bayram who is a native of Cyprus and a much valued member of TN. I much appreciate your great knowledge about the flora and fauna of Cyprus, an island I hope to return to.

I would also like to ask you, Bayram, if you can confirm the ID of this flower as I’m not 100 per cent sure! I found it in a rocky area up in the hills of Akama. This was the only one I could see and it had a diameter of about 6-8 cm. It’s not a very good capture as it was very dark at the time and we were minutes later caught in a hail-storm!

Thanks for looking and have a nice weekend!

Hi Ulla.
Flower is really wonderful and its little visitor too. Despite poor light conditions shot is perfectly detailed and colours look so naturally. I welcome impressive square cropping and upper POV. You managed to show us many attractive tiny details in flower heart. Small piece of the BG :) is necessary to complete the composition. Well done and kind regards. My best wishes for weekend too.

Hi Ulla. Excellent image for a-not-very-good-capture image. I like the crispy white petals with visitir on it as well. The stamens with some dropping on the petals are well exposed in details. Well cropped and hope Bayram will confirm the ID and I'm sure he would love this dedication. Regards. Jusni

It is rare that flowers are posted and I have never heard of them nor seen obviously...It has a very unique shape and colour so it should be identifiable...and of course that delicate Ulla touch of adding one with an insect:-) It's your signature!

nice portrait, I remember it from Cyprus, in Israel they are all red. greetings Ori

Hello Ulla,
Very nice flower, good composition. Interesting note and colours. I like it. Excellent work.Nice dedication for Bayram.
Regards Siggi

Isn't it wonderful, Ulla, that there are so many experts on this site who can always confirm the identity of flora and fauna, no matter where it is photographed!
This is a beautiful, anemone-like flower. You have captured the colour, texture and form details so well that I am sure Bayram will be able to help you.

Have a good w/e,
Bev :-)

Hello Ulla, a perfect close up shot of this beutiful flower (I think it is an anemone and we meet it so much during our herpetological trips with our supervisor). I am sur he will like this:). TFS and kind regards,

Hi Ulla,
A honour and privilege to receive such wonderful dedication from you. It is also significant for me in two ways: because it is coming from my homeland and an esteemed photographer such as you. You can sure that I loved this beautiful perennial. It is absolutely a ranunculacean member and as i known it is an anemone (crown anemone- Anemone coronaria. Of all the spring flowers, this is surely one of most attractive one my friend!. Great details on petals, nice soft exposure and wonderful DOF as well.
Thanks once more for this pleasant dedication to me my friend!
Best wishes and regards,

Bayram

Hello Ulla
Thanks for sharing this flower which you dedicated to our friend Bayram. I am sure he will appreciate this one just as much as all the other devotions. It is well deserved. Although this flower is not brightly coloured it surely has attention grabbing features. Maybe it is the big petals and the widely opened spaces in-between one another. Maybe it is the shape or the size or even the colour of the large shaped anther heads. It does not matter what it is, it surely catches the eye. I like the full frame. It brings the object so much closer to the eye. This way also one can see the details more closely, and off course this way one also cannot miss the little insect. Thanks for sharing this one from your archives.
Kind regards
Anna

Bonjour Ulla, a very nice picture of this anemone, it is beautiful, with the addition of the insect! Cyprus seems fascinating and I really wish to go there once. But it's not on my program for now, as I am travelling through your pictures and the ones from TN members for now. Thank you for this nice dedication to Bayram,

Francine

Indeed a perfect Anemone specimen in its prime Ulla, and a fine dedication to our esteemed friend, Dr. Bayram Gocmen, I'm sure he will like this greatly...
Cheers,
Mehmet
