Punchy colors and nice folds from the petals. Light seems overcast which is pretty cool as well. Cannot wait for Spring again. I have some 100 tulip bulbs to be planted all chosen with photography in mind for next spring.

Tulips are such good subject for photography with its rich colors. Good choice of DOF with nice details in the front petal.

Rich color Craig and I like the dof decision and the cropped composition as well. Love those light edges too. Beautiful work. No suggestions.

Craig: Eye candy! Tulips do poorly in our sub-tropical climate so I really envy you northern guys. OTOH I would rather sweat than shiver so maybe I'll just revel in your images. Very well done.>=))>
