Daffodil 2

Posted by Anita (West Nottingham, United States) on 14 April 2009 in Plant & Nature.

I'm enjoying the cheery faces of Daffodils.

*****THANK YOU FOR VISITING ANITA'S PHOTOBLOG!*****

I welcome your honest critique, especially if they will improve my photography.

If I have made a mistake in a flower identification, please let me know!

A few words about the EXIF data, beginning in April when I began using Nikon D300 and the Sigma 105mm macro: My new camera and macro lens record the relative or effective f stop, not the one seen on the lens. For an explanation of this, go to the next to the last question at this site.

I agree . . there is a feeling of re-awakening and a fresh start with daffodils. I like the extra bite of the clean colors here, too.
