Thanks, Don.  The camera was a Fuji, X-T2, but the lens is the Leica Elmarit-R 60 Macro.  I've had it for several years, purchased from the daughter of a deceased Leica photographer who, she said, always used it for flowers.  He was right, it is great for flowers.

     As we get a few warm days in February, more Daffodils have shown up.
     These are survivors of roadside plantings many decades ago (I've been
     aware of them for more than 60 yrs), and seem to be very hardy. They
     seem to prosper beneath dogwoods and other plants that provide a leaf 
mulch.

     In their natural environment:

     As seen by the venerable Leica-R 60 Macro, the "flower lens".
