Daffodils, backlit
Narcissus sp.
Daffodil · New York Botanical Garden · 6 April 2021
A cyclamineus type, told by the swept-back petals. The flower looks permanently caught in a gust.
The habit is bred from Narcissus cyclamineus, a small wild species from north-west Spain and Portugal that does exactly this on its own. Shot into the light and wide open, which turns the field behind into nothing but colour.
Birds, insects, plants and other wildlife, mostly from Brooklyn, with some from further afield.
