Another from the "KS Studio" yesterday with a slightly different presentation of these hyacinths this time in that I have included the bulbs and some surrounding fibre: I can never get them to grow straight up, they always fall over but this can have photogenic advantages from a compositional viewpoint.
My thanks to all who commented on A Trossachs Lochan.
Ronnie.

Great shot Ronnie, knew it was yours from the thumbnail.

Do you ever get the chance to do the washing up????
Excellent and beautiful image.
I am not keen on Hyacinths myself but you have made these look wonderful. The lighting is great - how did you do it? 
As you so rightly say Ronnie, they always do fall over but YES on this occasion it does give an advantage, lovely picture - well done
I was trilled with your comment on the fly...................made me fall on the fall.............lovely image of the Hyacinth............nicely presented.............
I'm not sure you could arrange these any better in the frame, Ronnie, natural perfection (compositionally speaking 
). The KS lighting gives a wonderful glow to the colours as well. And a quick mention for an excellent presentation.

Yet another superb KS shot Ronnie. Love the detail, colour and presentation and the flowers stand out so well against the black background. The composition and framing are up to your usual excellent standard. I have grown Hyacinths a few times but no more, I find the scent overpowering in the house.

Really is lovely Ronnie.
Pam
It would need a lot of straightening of the verticals in Photoshop here, Ronnie! Very beautiful image, excellently lit and photographed
Trev
The colours and light are, of course, excellent, Ronnie. You've taken good advantage of their shape. It's the same problem I used to have re the Paperwhite Narcissus and the only way I find to prevent the stems growing long and the heads falling over is to keep them in a very cool place as long as possible, in my case, the greenhouse.

Fantastic image Ronnie, nicely worked and that wonderful scent is filling my Room and making it feel VERY Springlike.
John
An inspired title, Ronnie, and a beautiful image.
A first class floral image Ronnie, you really are the master at producing these
