    Hi,
    Do you think one an use the stamens of wild crocus for saffron?
    BTW, I don't have my feeds switched on as I don't like to have people read my posts in google reader.

Welcome to my photography blog, where I share the world as seen through my lens. All commenter's will receive a visit back from me but no longer individual replies unless you have a question, which I will respond to here. Your praise and kind words are always appreciated but to keep saying thankyou to you all individually, in an original way is not easy. So I am saying it here instead, a massive thankyou from my heart for all the wonderful support, your comments are a great encouragement to me.
