My, Susanne, this is really good. You have captured the essence of these two flowers. The lighting and the shadows are very good. The colors are vibrant. It is just excellent!
Hope springs eternal for spring!! Great embodiment of that feeling, as I sit here and watch the snow falling and prepare for another three-day snowstorm :(

You have the full meal deal with this capture Susanne. The tight crop is very effective and the colour work is spot on. Great lighting as well. Nice one.
I not a lover of flowers - as an EX-market gardener I am done with all things agricultural unless I'm cooking it! But the angle you've found is a beaut and the tulip is such a simple and elegant thing that I find myself really taken withthis shot. 40 years ago I went to the bulb fields in Holland and this is such a catalyst for the memories of those times to spring back into my heart! Thank you Susanne. Tommy
