this yellow tulip is being attacked by tiny creatures even though they're hard to see. i did think, however, that the flower and its glow were very pretty. enjoy!

Yuck those are aphids...if you would put warm water and some regular dish soap into a little spray bottle, and spray these plants, that will gently get rid of the aphids without harming the pretty flowers. I do love the yellow too. Very nice. Verena

Well, even aphids have to eat. Ladybugs will get rid of them too, but hey, the tulip is passing anyway. You are right about it still be very pretty and I love the primary colors of your whole image.

You will be led to the knowledge of the internal things which are invisible to you, by the external things which you see before you. . . . Even so then, we can represent to ourselves in thought the Author of all that is, by contemplating and admiring the (visible) things which He has made, and ever brings into being. - Hermes

Naughty little greenfies. They do not detract from the beauty of this tulip though.The blurred background sets off its brilliance very well.

Pretty flower with aphids. You need some ladybugs to eat them. Good image.
