…taken about two weeks ago...after a rain-soaking that prior night. Tulips are pretty much at their end now. Alas…another year slips by…

Ken:

This is quite a sight. Must be worth the effort of getting there! Love the lines going into infinity and also the reflection. :toast:

Love the comp, color, texture and wetness of the mud against the dark sky. :toast: The reflections of the flowers in the puddles is wonderful. Not what most would call a perfect day for photos....But, it IS a perfect day with great light! :wavey:

This is really great Ken. I love the perspective - with the one row going right out from the center. The expanse of the shot and the horizon is excellent too. Wonderful all around!

Amazing view Ken. Very well composed. The red flowers and the grey skies make for a great combination. The slightly off center view work great. Very nice!

Hi Ken :wavey: The symmetry of the lines, the graphic detail, and the vibrant color, work wonderfully well together :toast:

Love the looonnnngggg rows vanishing into the distance. Having texture in the clouds works well and the overcast really saturates the colors. Well seen.

A totally different take than the last one and just as interesting. :toast:

It happens too fast! Great capture of how these farms feel Ken; I love the almost infinite rows of color.
