Spring in Benfleet

[JohnRostron]

Having admired Sharon's daffodils in Skagit valley, I thought I would post a couple of pics of daffodils in my front garden. They were planted by my daughter aged two and have since been subject to benign neglect. She is now 44.

#2


These were taken blind by holding the camera close to the ground and pointing it in roughly the right direction. Composition is thus a non-starter! Although the second one has some distracting background, I put it in because I think it shows nicely the contrast in the flowers' two rings of tepals.

What do you think?

Good ground level shots! This is how a cat or small dog would see them.

We've had a much colder winter than usual hence the daffodils in Sharon's photos and a few miles away (across an international border) in my garden are not as advanced as yours.

Nice shots.

Love them! I like the contrasting color dafs. I need to go see if we have them here
i like number 2 especially, despite what you say is a distracting background.

I like both of them...through the eyes of a small dog or cat, as Bruce said. And you haven't moved it since? You must have quite a bundle there to sell by now...
