Wow, I am really jealous now. We had another 20cm of snow last night and I am just back from shoveling the backyard so we could get the car out...Very nicely captured. The trees surrounding the daffodils are very nice.
Beautiful photograph

I previously posted a picture of our early flowers in a comment to one of your lovely pictures. Unfortunately, our early flowers are still, +/- a few 10's of cm of snow, in exactly the same state of development as they were then. Suzanne's are likely in that state too. That said, your lovely photo, with its lovely light, trees, nice diagonal branch, and beautiful flowers gives some hope that spring is coming. Ahhhh... can hardly wait!

Lisa - thank you. It was so nice to see them.
Suzanne - thank you. ( I did think of you and Marion knee-deep in snow when I posted this!).
Marion - thank you. As I said to Suzanne, I did think of you under the blanket of snow. A few more weeks before the snow goes?
Cynthia - thank you - it does feel like spring. Slightly unusual even here in UK.

Oh, I love daffodils. I've been two times in UK in early spring and the masses of daffodils I've seen there at some places were impressive.
