Maikel de BakkerA low-angle view, looking up at a narcissus against a bright blue sky.
Taken earlier today in full sunlight, this perspective gives the flower a sense of presence—almost as if it’s reaching upward, surrounded by others softly fading into the background. By shooting wide open at f/2.6, the foreground stays sharp while the rest gently dissolves into color and light.
The name “narcissus” traces back to the Greek myth of Narcissus, a young man who became so captivated by his own reflection that he could not look away, eventually fading at the water’s edge. According to the story, the flower bloomed where he was found. While it’s a myth, it does say something timeless about perception, reflection, and how easily we can become absorbed in what we see.
Scientifically, narcissus species are among the early bloomers of spring, using stored energy in their bulbs to flower before many other plants emerge. This gives them a head start in capturing sunlight and attracting pollinators.
Captured with my Canon 5DS R and Sigma 24–70 Art, ISO 100, f/2.6, 1/500 sec.

the roamerWow, yes, a very thoughtful and on first reading compelling argument. Also, a (to me) new and deeper look at the Narcissus myth and its relevance. Bookmarked for repeat-reading!
Intensive use of AI tools changes the user and makes them speak _to_ and _for_ the AI, and that in turn changes the person's subtle pre-conscious germination of ideas and makes them lose creative spaces within themselves:
" ... deeper reliance on A.I. would desiccate those less legible aspects of myself, ...".
An important essay. Thank you for the link.
