Tulips 8

Hi all.

Just a couple more tulip photos for your opinions. This one feels a bit more 'conventional' to me.

Any and all thoughts appreciated.

I believe this is my favorite Nathan. Dreamy soft colors and light superbly handled.

An excellent tulip perspective with a wonderful splash of colors for the background. For me this is my favorite horizontal version, well done.

Nathan - Looks nice and soft with pastel shades. Background is also soft and does not compete with the main Tulip. While this is nice as is, a strong vertical also make look nice. Not sure you posted it earlier. Will check later.
