6/52: Melancholy
I bought 40 daffodils this week to try and cheer myself up as it's been one heck of a week - actually, 2013 has been pretty awful so far. It seems this is not going to be a good year for us.
I really find daffodils difficult to photograph. Such a beautifully yellow and happy flower, yet incredibly difficult to get right. I did this using a mirror and then flipped the image from landscape to portrait. I converted to mono because I didn't find the colours to be "quite right" (and possibly a reflection of my current mood!).
Hopefully more happy pics will follow ;-)
