tulips

A friend gave me two bouquets of pink tulips, which are gorgeous. Outside, the weather is grey and gloomy. I shot these against the window and liked the impressionistic effect.

    These are beautiful. And your treatment of them is beautiful. And I'm in agreement with whoever thinks that tulips can chase away the winter doldrums.

    I love tulips and these show just why...They are crispy and fresh and just wounderful. The light behind the tulips makes an interesting soft colour!
