Simply superb! The vignetting draws complete attention to the marvelous composition and color and the flowers in the background look almost like mirror reflections!

I love seeing these images of spring even though we're quite a way from it yet. The vignetting is ideal for keeping our focus on that spritely daff and not on the background. Speaking of background, I love the trio of daffodil heads in shallow dof -- they're like a great supporting cast!

I like this isolated blossom with the blurred flowers as a supporting background. Lovely yellow too.

des jonquilles qui dansent, le bal des daffodils, la danse du jaune dans l'air du printemps..

I am just going to say the same thing I said to Jack because I am getting same feeling from both yours and his shots. 'Beautiful flowers and that blur is really making them stand out.'
