Tulips
Our areas late blooming tulips are mostly at their prime at the Woodland Tulip Festival, I expect the blooms at Canby are about the same. Now is the time to get out and record your favorites.
Taken yesterday, early before the breezes arrived.

Hi Craig:

This is beautiful. I love the lighting and bokeh. Good use of your macro. I was in Washington DC last week and got some terrific tulips, but nothing like this.

How did you process it and how did you make your frame? Both make this stand out as a beauty!

Nicely done, and, the framing around it makes it stand out even more. :)
