Hello, Sir Paul, these tulips are positively stunning and are so orange, so yellow, just breath- takingly beautiful! Always remember, as I am sure you know by now, that 'simplicity is beauty'! This is a classic example of simple beauty! Thank you for sharing these lovely tokens of spring, which is fast approaching and then once again, we will dwell in a wonderland of color! It is at this time, I suggest you depart from the 'flower garden' and leave the flowers to me, as I have no recourse, as do you Sir Knight! I am self-contained in the garden of flowers, and you have the whole universe you may photograph with all your talent! LOL, LOL, LOL! Teasing of course, this image is really wonderfully photographed, fine job, once again, and again, and again! These tulips will cohabit with many of my other favorites! Sincerely, Marilyn

Ha, ha, all those questions about lenses again and again...
Ok I'll surprise you all, this is cheapest lens you'll find at ceades. It is an adapter lens I attached on to my standard Canon lens. The price? Only 27 Euros, which is about 30 US dollars. It has a magnification factor 4.
I bought it last week and I kind of like it. I can bring it with me in my pocket and screw it on top of any 58 mm lens whenever I need it.
So you see why I never give details about expensive equipement or lenses. I am almost ashame to use cheap rubbish to shoot things like this.
But it works out well enough, I guess.
But if you wonder why I get this image to be like this...the aperature was 36 at ISO 100.
And I must say that the image as it is shown here is actually dissapointing for me to see. I uploaded a really clean image file of 1.23 MB, but the oriinal quality was lost somewhere during the processing here at Ceades.
So the lesson for today: never blame your equipment!
Paul

No. The journey doesn't end here. Death is just another path. One that we all must take. The grey-rain curtain of this world rolls back, and all will turn to silver glass. And then you see it. White shores and beyond. The far green country unto a swift sunrise.
