Spring in Northern Hemisphere

iPhone5

Spring is early this year, but here in UK it is still in the early phase.  Elsewhere in Europe, i believe the flowers are blooming. Here are some outtakes from my short visit to nearby garden. I'll put more photos after the Easter break (kalau ada masa nak update).

All of the images were SOOC. No post processing involved except the addition of watermark. The picture control was set to landscape, and voila! (p.s: Don't you envy this brilliant lighting on this part of the world? ;)

Nikon D700: White flowers against the blue sky.

iPhone5: Relative comparison, so you'll get an idea how big the flower was.

Nikon D700: Majority of daffodils here are a few days old. 

Nikon D700: The temperature was a bit cold yesterday, 6ºC and windy.

iPhone5: And lastly, daisy.

So heres the sexy beast....
