The spring season is fast approaching, and flowers are starting to bloom in the parks and gardens across the land.

Easy to go and get a bunch of daffodils from the shop or the park (or roundabouts) and gardens... This is a miniture specimen from out of tub - one of twenty or thirty the wife planted last year that are now in bloom. So rather than a bunch, here is a detailed close up with my obligatory water droplet to add interest - and this time the window is reflected, but I have emphasised the petal detail in the droplet.

    I love the way you can see the surface of the Daffodil magnified through the water droplet.

    I would clone out that little thing on the the right whatever it is,
    it looks like it doesn't belong on the daffodil, maybe a bit lint or something?

    The window reflection adds a nice touch to this image clap.gif
    Lovely shot Paul thumb.gif .... Skippy :D
