The trillium is the true harbinger of spring in the Northwest. Its bright triad of petals, lighting up the forest floor.
Come forward sun, beam your light through these transparent wings. In your honor we reflect back the light and warmth of your gift.
Damn near holy, these fucking trilliums, there everywhere right now.

Green as the month of March. I like the contrast of the new bud with the bare branch and thorn. I really punched up the green in the background, not sure if that's the accurate shade, but it looks striking.
