These flowers were photographed at the botanical garden in Boothbay, Maine. I remember one of the employees there mentioning to me how normally the tulips grew straight up, but had been blown around just a few days prior, causes them to lean. I told her that I was glad because it made them more interesting compositionally. This photo is at full frame. A distracting sign was cloned out. The only other adjustment was a little digital burning in spots.
