light was good, the bare trees seemed to stand out against the sky.\u00a0 There daffodils everywhere, adding a\u00a0 splash of yellow to the scene.\u00a0\u00a0 I managed a few photographs with daffodils and the unleafed skeletons of trees.\u00a0\u00a0It was fortunate that I had a thick supermarket bag in the car, so I was able to kneel down to get closer to the flowers.<\/p>\n<p>While I was there I also took the opportunity to look for another view of the Reform Tower.\u00a0\u00a0 I will come back later when the trees are in leaf and see how the tower looks then.<\/p>\n<p><a
