Photographer pinkjay tells us about this February 21, 2010 image: It is a shot of a tub of dwarf daffodils in my back garden after more snow during the night. You can see the snow melting on the end of the bud that is opening up. We have experienced more snow than normal over the past few months.

It was taken in Newtownabbey, (near Belfast), Northern Ireland, UK.
