Photographers Comments
Shot last year on Hols in Devon. Went to find out what all the fuss was about. The place is just magical. Photographic opportunity everywhere you look. Looks a touch dull on the site compared to CS3 here at home..

Nice colours, with the daffodils standing out nicely in there own right. With the other flowers fading away in the background. Nothing too distracting in background and your eye soon returns back to the daffodils. Would have liked to have seen a slightly bigger image.

This is a different outlook on Eden, I like it. Like Barry says about the flowers - your eye is drawn into the image, then back to the daffodils.

Nice one mate!

The juxtaposition of mother nature verses human nature works really well here, the lines of daffodils naturally draws the eye towards the honycomb dome into a nice blue sky and back again with ease. A nice relaxing image. (Every prison cell should have one)

As said before the colour transition is very complimentary to the pic. Works great. I would say Barrys remarks about a slightly bigger image are right.

The place is full of photo ops' so I expect to see more mate. Though I do understand how hard it is to assign any quality shooting time when you are having family day out.
