This is a different shot of the same tulip in my Sun Lights picture. It was heavy from the rain and lying low so I rotated it to a more upright position and also added some extra stem as I had cut it too short. I love the way these flowers close themselves up when it rains and when the light fades :)

This little flower is so lovely...seems like its living in a different world, all to itself. Gorgeous color too, great job:)

Funny I should get to comment right after "Owd Bob" because I just commented on his twins and the first thought that ran through my mind on this one was loneliness. It almost looks like it's crying. I think it misses one of its friends. Great colors and framing as usual. Love it.

Beautiful, this has all the appeal of the previous picture, but on the colour balance it works much better for me. You mention the stem, but I can't hardly see it because it is very dark, and the flower seems to be floating.

It looks very nice on my monitor. The royal red on the deep black works really well.
Maybe you could add a green leave.
Hehe! We said positive AND negative comments ;-)

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
