Every January these little Paper Whites are the first new flowers of the year and always mean that the seasons are turning from decline and decay to increase and vitality. Was really glad to see their cheery little faces this morning. All comments welcome. >=))>

Really nice with the blending of warmth and cooler tones. I'm eagerly awaiting the heralds of spring as well.

Love to see the Paper Whites, Bill! Our started blooming several weeks ago. Good filling of the frame by adding the white vingette!

Wonderful image Bill, would love to see some kind of sign of spring here but it is only February.

Very nice Bill. Great grouping of these blooms. If you vignetted in post, I might soften the vignette just a bit.
