[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
Coltsfoot (Tussilago farfara) is a plant in the family Asteraceae.

It has been used medicinally as a cough suppressant. The name "tussilago" itself means "cough suppressant". The plant has been used since at least historical times to treat lung ailments such as asthma as well as various coughs by way of smoking. Crushed flowers supposedly cured skin conditions, and the plant has been consumed as a food item.

To me the coltsfoot has a very simple implication, it is always the first wild flower that appears in spring!

------

I have added a new theme, Three of A Kind, meant for images where the Principle of Three is used in the composition! For some reason three of a kind looks better than two or four; perception research gives a suggestion why…

This theme is open for all, and will contain images where three of an element is significant and well visible in the frame, and I hope the creative TLers will contribute their work!

Hi Pablo,
Perfect sunny trio! I like the brightness of these flowers against the dark background. Excellent! Annie

Hi Pablo,
Sorry haven't had time to look for a photo that I can add to the theme. I might do it tonight.
This is a wonderful photo where I like the difference in exposure between the flowers and grass a lot. It alsmost feels as if you did a partial desaturation. The composition with the three lovely flowers and it great details is very beautiful.

I love the way these flowers stand out against the dark BG. I know garden designers suggest planting in multiplesof three and you can see from this photo that this is the more attractive option. Lovely composition and nicely sharp

Due to the dark background and the bright and lively colors on the petals, these flowers almost seem to jump off the screen Pablo! Wonderful!

Flowers... that's one of the things that I love so much about Norway. Everywhere you go, everywhere you look... just as soon as spring is there all of the Norwegian landscape is filled with all kinds of flowers in all kinds of colors...
I just LOVE that!

Hello Pablo,

Hi Pablo!
This is a good continuation of your "God likes Trinity" series. Black and yellow is one of the warning combinations that attracts attention - as is the case with this photo.
Have a nice weekend!

Hi Pablo,
Great trio again. Awesome color contrast. Fantastic compo, the only thing I don't like too much is the thick white frame, but it's a kind of personal taste. The photo itself is a masterwork. Greetings, László

Simple and charming compo, with those three yellow flowers contrasting with the dark BG. Special light.

# is better looking in nature for sure. In the USA there is robotussin cough syrup..... I never heard of these cures, I would have tried them. I used aloe leaves, long before it was mainstream. People gasped at yogurt in 1965. I believe in eating honey, and butter, that it really had antobiotic value, and many other old time ideas....

What a lovely composition, Pablo! I like the dark and subdued tone of the background. The focused subject with a vivid color is outstanding. Very well done!
TFS,
Freddie :)

We can imagine 3 young lady with a yellow hat:
- Hey sisters! What are you doing!
- Nothing just stay under the sun and relax...
- Can i join you...
- We were just hope you join! Come and relax!
- Haaa the pleasure to bee a flower.
- Yes i hope they will come today! I need a retouch to my hears...

The light.. Just a good ray of light to increase that yellow! Nice!
