Muffins and Daffs, originally uploaded by Squidge:).
We do not include indoor compositions very often, but this delicious photo caught our eye, er stomach. We love the yellow of the corn muffins, foretelling the yellow of the daffodils still to bloom.
Photographer Squidge:) tells us about this image, taken on March 11, 2010: The photo was taken in my kitchen in Falmouth, Cornwall, England. It was my day off and I’d spent the day doing some shopping and lots of cooking including the sweetcorn muffins that are also in the shot. Daffodils are late coming in England this year because it’s been so cold but luckily for me Cornwall is warmer than the rest of the country so our daffs are out now
On the flickr page, Squidge:) says: Couldn’t resist buying some daffodils today… it’s been so sunny this week, feels like spring is here at last!

Field of Daffodils 2, originally uploaded by Tim’sSeaGlimpses.
Photographer Tim’sSeaGlimpses tells us about this February 14, 2010 image: The far west of Cornwall has many tiny daffodil meadows/fields, many hidden away from roads. With a careful choice of varieties in our comparatively mild climate (compared to the rest of the UK) the season can run from mid-Dec to March.
The comment on the flickr page: Daffodils brighten up a grey February morning, but these flowers have already opened too far for picking to send to market.
You can see additional images of these fields and elsewhere on Tim’sSeaGlimpses Daffodils set.
