delicate deception

Posted by A. Saab on March 22, 2015March 22, 2015

this flower looks so fragile, but it is one of the first to emerge from the dirt in spring, strong as an ox. it comes on the heels of winter & has been seen covered in snow, freezing rain, it has held fast in a hard frost…it can handle all this assault from Mother Nature’s cruel springtime tricks better then i can. the daffodil, my hero

lovely photos, both unique. I like the full colour drama of the last showing its pretty ‘petticoats’ close up. the top image soft focus, nearly monochromatic, really echoes though. It has such sensitivity – I just love it! 🙂 great photos !
