Tortured Daffodils

Saturday 5th March 2005 - Day 77

We have a few daffodils in our garden, they had started to bloom before our recent cold spell. During and since they have been looking rather sorry for themselves, trying to hide themselves and generally looking cold. However, with the temperature having risen about 5 degrees, they just about have recovered their dignity.

Until that is I stuck a lens down them :)

Only PS work is levels, cropping and borders. All the rest down to a windy day!

Nikon D70 ,Sigma 50mm f/2.8 EX DG Macro

This is surreal, and I can't stop looking at it, it's mesmerising. I like it a lot.

Wow, very bright. A very different shot of the usual ones seen of daffodils, I like it.

Tortured or not, just the glimpse of the thumb on this made me smile. Beautiful, vivid, happy color. It is like sunshine and just what I needed to see today, Lee. :-D
