Proof of Life [to come]!

We're on semi-cat-sitting duty again and the kittens' daffodils have popped! It was late in the day and light was failing, so I used flash to make the yellow pop and reduce the noise.

@exposure4u And when spring blooms there, I hope to see more color postings from Wendy!

[Grace Mitchell]

it really pops! :D

@gmitche47 Thanks, Grace. At the price of a petal-shadow, but I also was forcing myself to push the subject away from the center, a la @cohare , who does it by her natural style!

So beautiful. The color is just amazing.

Very pretty daffodil, the colour does pop! Nice composition too.

good use of flash... it really made the color popped... nicely done Thom.

@shortperson2002 @bella_ss @fusedlights @fusedlights Thank you all! I was pleased with the color and contrast outcome!

Beautiful Thom! The first daffodil I see every year makes me smile. Technically... this is the first I have seen this year! :)

@cohare Thank you, Christine! Because this flower is left-facing, it was easy to push the subject right-of-center. On the other hand, I invite you to read about today’s shot! http://365project.org/rhoing/365/2011-03-14
