Village Daffs

The flowers are blooming, the birds singing, the lambs springing, but
still the sun don't shine.
Another overcast day so just pulled over to get a quick pic of these daffs in Ballymascanlon Village on my way home for lunch.

Beautiful flowers, but the composition is also very good and I love the background. V

What a lovely spring capture, beautifully composed, and that color is super!

Very pretty setting and nicely framed.

Lovely composition of daffs against a picturesque backdrop. There are times when colors on an overcast day look brighter than in sunshine. This is one of those times. V

the daffs look fine in the diffused light...and what an effusive spray of leaves..

A cheery image even on a cloudy day! I can hardly wait to see these bloom here.

Lovely daffys and the red in the window is fantastic touch to the flowers.

Don't worry. These beautiful daffodils know the sun and warm weather is on the way. Beautiful flowers and photo.

The village might be deserted but the daffs live on.

Plenty of time for sunshine later but the daffs will only be about for a while.
Looks as though they may have prompted this home owner to paint his window frames.

Lovely spring scene. V.

Great to see the daffs, the buds on the trees and hear the birds singing.

At least the vibrant yellows of the daffs provide an approximation of sunshine. I like the inclusion of the thickly-painted old style window frame as well as the masonry; combined with the flowers it gives a quiet village feel.

Daffodils are the quintessential spring flowers, in my mind, and this is a lovely colourful image. V
