Orange and Yellow

I was going to call this the colours of Spring, but Spring doesn't start until Sunday and this was shot on Monday (6 days before)

I was photographing the daffodils in Nottingham Arboretum (I photographed a couple of strangers in the daffs last week).

I'd done couple of arty shots and then I noticed a young lady walking up the path in a vibrant orange top. The lens on my Sony RX100VII goes quite wide so it was relatively easy to capture the lady and the daffs.

The light is contra jour and makes for a cracking photo and don't you just love the rim lighting on the lady. Street photography in the park one could say.
Superb bright colours. It rained here most of today so didn’t feel very springlike.

A lovely capture of this young lady and the Daffodils. I do like the rim of light around her head!

She definitely stands out! A beautiful spring(‘ish) scene.
