Absolutely stunning! The BG perfectly showcases that rich velvety red bloom. I like that you included the tip of the leaf in the LRC. Positively marvelous

Excellent light for this Tulip, Larry! I like the satiny look to the flower and the composition is right on.

Just magic Larry !! Perfect position of the lights to bounce that sheen. Held those subtle textures just fine in this. As already noted, excellent dark background to enhance those wonderful lines mate, just perfect for it.

All the best Larry, well deserved and not only a superb shot, but also brilliant work. Pat yourself on the back, I can't reach

I'm sorry I missed this one, Larry... Wow, that is some fabulous light on the reddest tulip I think I 've ever seen. And the BG color you chose for it is as equally rich and deep. The combination is as near to perfection as I can imagine. Way to go! Many congrats on a well earned EP!

Congratulations on the EP. Amazing texture and detail in the tulip and again, that complementary background is the icing on the cake.
