A profusion of crocus covers St Andrew's churchyard in Coniston at the moment. It is a churchyard with many interesting and ornate gravestones, mostly on the other side of the church to this view, but the star of the show at the moment are the flowers. No wonder John Ruskin opted for this peaceful place in the shadow of Lakeland hills to Westminster Abbey as his final resting place.

today we celebrate purple cup day, to teach kids there are people less fortunate than us. You pruple flowers would be ideal for me to wear.
Beautiful! The churchyard appeals immensely to the tapophile in me. Oh, and I love purple!
