That's a beauty. Its pure whiteness really stands out against the defocussed background. Very nice Ron

This looks like a narcissus which is a daffodil which is a narcissus. Boy does that ever make sense eh!!! I always thought that the white daffodil with the colorful center was a narcissus and that the yellow flower was a daffodil, but the dictionary tells me that narcissus simply means daffodil and vice versa. I love how the center orange frill stands out in such sharp relief. Wonderful DOF.

Wonderful Narciss' very crispy photo. Thanks for your "crop" comment on my photo with the concrete elements. You're right, I've tried to crop it today ;)

Such a perfect bloom and the bud coming on right behind it is a nice touch.
