Narcissus & Sage

Posted by Judy (Brooksville, Florida, United States) on 15 January 2008 in Plant & Nature and Portfolio.

I was taken by the sheer quality of the Narcissus petals in contrast to the thick leaves of the Sage.

How delicate and lovely these little white flowers and the sage so fuzzy and thick. Beautiful composition Judy.

A very nicely combined twosome -- the sage and narcissus together work well.
