The Liverwort (Hepatica nobilis) heralds spring. This apparently simple flower, upon closer inspection, shows its wonderfully subtle graduations of blue and lilac depending on the age and size of a particular flower head. Finding more than just a few isolated flowers (here in the Rheingau, Germany) is a wonderful opportunity to try and capture the essence of a single flower buried within a multitude of evening spring colour, which, through hints of form and structure, emphasise the accompanying flowers.
