Sunday Stills – Flowers

Just one shot today… I took this last Sunday near Céreste.  In years gone by, Narcissi were grown here commercially for the perfume industry in Grasse.  There are still a couple of fields where they  turn up by the thousands, but mostly the land has been ploughed and reseeded and the Narcissi are just left to come up in the margins and the boggy patches which can’t be ploughed.

I really wanted the narrow depth of field in this one, so that the flowers in the background blur away into the distance.
