Some daffodils from my garden.

From the net:
Narcissus is the botanic name for a genus of mainly hardy, mostly spring-flowering, bulbs in the Amaryllis family native to Europe, North Africa, and Asia. There are also several Narcissus species that bloom in the autumn. Though Hortus Third cites 26 wild species, Daffodils for North American Gardens cites between 50 and 100 excluding species variants and wild hybrids. Through taxonomic and genetic research, it is speculated that over time this number will likely continue to be refined. Daffodil is a common English name, sometimes used now for all varieties, and is the chief common name of horticultural prevalence used by the American Daffodil Society. The range of forms in cultivation has been heavily modified and extended, with new variations available from specialists almost every year.

Bonjour Andrei,
Un bel éventail de narcisses, avec le BG noir, les couleurs ressortent parfaitement.
Jolie composition.
Bonne journée

Hi Andrei,

Lovely to see these sping flowers against a black BG.
However I personally don't like the glass vase, so I made you a WS.

Hello Andrei


A beautiful capture here, excellent sharpness and detail with good lighting. Nice contrasting black BG and framing and interesting notes too

TFS regards Helen

Hi Andrei,

Nice flowers with great colors.
Maybe the picture could be better without the vase.
Best regards,
Olivier
