crazy daffodil

The shot I had planned didn't work out, so here is a slightly crazy edit of a daffodil - the first in our house this year. They are such happy flowers. And it fits the weekly theme, I think!

[Boo]

Lovely, daffs always cheer up any room

[Kimberly Balychev]

I'm loving the crazy daffodil! :) It is a very happy flower indeed! Love the bright color of it! Makes me smile :)

[Peter H]

@huvesaker Thank you, Boo, they do, indeed!
@kbalychev Kimberley, I'm glad :-)

[Fanny Brogden]

i seem to remember yellow is your happy colour?!! A very cheerful shot and fits the theme beautifully.....love the lighting.have you been spending money again?!!!!!!!!!! on lights that is!

[Vic]

Is this called a low key shot? I love the black background with the acid yellow. Very cool.

[Vic]

Fits theme perfectly!

[Paulien]

Lovely!

[Rosie Kind]

It's the first one I've seen this year - lovely

Beautiful shot, the light and shade work perfectly.

[Kim Crisp]

Interesting edit Peter, I wasn't sure I liked it to start with but the more I look at this shot, the more it grows on me!

[Ruth Moucharafieh]

I agree happy flowers indeed!

[Peter H]

@fannyb Well remembered, Fanny. No more spending (especially after that last lens purchase!). But it is nice to play around with off-camera flash!

[Peter H]

@takeonlyphotos Vic, no, I think this is negative space - I'm as confused as you!

[Peter H]

@gerry Thanks, Gerry.
@mejbronant Thank you so much!

[Peter H]

@kimcrisp Thank you, Kim. It does slightly suggest desperation, doesn't it?

[Jennifer Ruge]

They are good at bring joy into our homes. I can't wait until mine start poking their heads up in the garden. I am so ready for spring to come!

[Peter H]

@jenniferruge Aren't we all, Jennifer?

[8yearson]

So nice to see a spring flower, even if it is half demented! Nice simple composition, looks good against the dark background.....

[Gladys]

wonderful lighting. love the effect it gave the flower :)

[Chris]

I like the way you have framed/composed the photo.

[Vic]

@peadar I was looking at high key last night ant this looks like the opposite. Had a look on the font of all knowledge that is Wikipedia which says "low-key lighting often uses only one key light" so I think you've got a bit of both. Makes for a stunning shot.

[Veronica McDonnell]

Beautiful capture Peter. A sure sign that spring is on the way.

[Caroline Maki]

Beautiful flower!

[bardejov]

I really like the lighting here. Creates very nice shadows.

[Maina]

Iam very happy to see lovely flowers in Uk ! :)

[Elaine]

Super focus Peter, isn't it early for daffodils?

[Peter H]

@elaine55 I think they're imported from Holland where they are hot-housed in vast glasshouses.

[Stephanie Dc]

Great focus !

[Alison]

we had daffs bursting through throughout the town [council planted] until the snow come and covered them ~ they will be back i am sure :-)

This is lovely, I love the light and detail of the flower
