Normally I would pass up this very common wildflower, but when I saw this group of violets agains this Maple, I grabbed my wide angle to show this common wildflower in it's habitat.

Beautiful woodland scene -- I think a touch more contrast would really make the violets standout. It fairly shouts spring!

Our moist Spring has really brought out the wild flowers. Nice perspective of the violets.
