Every January these little paper whites pop up along a fence line behind our house to signal that spring is approaching. I try to shoot them every year as well and enjoy looking back at images of them from times past. All comments welcome.>=))>

Very pretty Bill. Excellent range of blooms and a nice plane of focus to get them all in focus. Nice color and details too.

Bill, I think that the image taken this year is beautiful. I love the composition and the low saturation of the yellow usually impudent.

Hey Bill. Just now saw this after commenting on the more recent one. I think I like this one even better. A little more dof and I'm a sucker for dark backgrounds. enlightened

A lovely composition, Bill, and great dof for the subjects. I noticed a little green in some leaf buds Tuesday and there's a frog croaking in our pond, so our spring isn't too far off. Nicely done.
