Default Sign of Spring: WestCoast of BC

After the snowdrops pop up, the crocuses are a sure sign that Spring is coming.....

Hi Andy: I do not have a scanner. I have them scanned to a CD at a local photoshop. Though this second attempt is okay-ish, I find the original file looks so much more vivid than either of these. I don't have any great software, I am just using seashore to resize the 6.5mb original scan. That may be why I am losing so much? Thomas

Default your second version is gorgeous

a fine brace of crocuses
lovely color, light & composition
translation to the web always loses a great deal and much more so for a film based file, I am afraid
your second file seems fine, but I am certain is not anywhere near as stunning as the original

thanks artichoke, though this does seem to be the case. I am disappointed with this result, as you can not make out the glistening dew on the green that is readily apparent on the original.
