It seems that spring has finally arrived in Manchester and it's been lovely and sunny for the last couple of days. While flowers are rare in the city, it some crocuses have been planted on campus in University colours (purple and yellow) and I couldn't resist the opportunity to grab some pictures of them this morning. Sadly, I only had my camera phone and the focus was a little dodgy, so I applied some 'artistic effects'. Please let me know what you think, and if the weather is nice this weekend, maybe I'll get down there with a real camera...
