The Meaning Of Daffodil Day

So Much More Than A Floral Tribute

Photograph copyright: DAVID McMAHON


Friday was Daffodil Day here in Australia. As a family, we too have been touched by the condition and recently lost a much-loved relative. This, the last weekend of the Australian winter, was the official fund-raiser for the Cancer Council, so I thought I should go out and find a daffofil that was not affected by last week's frosts. I was delighted to find this two-tone specimen and shot it, just to remind us all that blogging - or any form of creativity or means of human contact - is really a very deep affirmation of life.
