Found this one in a flower bed in Leland, MI at Fishtown. I liked how the bokeh turned out. Dealing with the wind, so shot with aperture wide open.

The color of the tulip is beautiful. I like the composition w/ the slight curve to the stem

Very nice composition and color Kathy, really like the way it stands out against the BG. Well done.

I agree, the bokeh is very pleasing, especially considering the wide-open shooting, which can totally smoot over the nice details if they are too far behind the subject.
