Morris, Connecticut, USA. At White Flower Farm, a nursery with gardens that are beautiful sights, and a favorite place to visit, had a variety of tulips on display. On May 1st, with intentional bokeh, backlit by the late afternoon sun, these red and yellow ones look like a painting - this is out of the camera, without manipulation. Enjoy! To my Caedes friends, I apologize that I haven't been commenting on photos lately. With a variety of projects, I have been very busy.

If practice makes perfect and nobody is perfect, then why practice?

Cameras are like people--sometimes they lose focus.

Love the back lighting on this one. (I apologize for not commenting on recent images but have been out-of-town at the wedding of my niece. I want you to know I did see any
images you posted.)

You posted this less than 5 hours ago, and all ready have an idiotic C-I. Booooo to all the voters. I think it's gorgeous and deserving a much much higher score. Excellent shot, Thad.

The reason why the sun sets in the evening is because it wants to see the sunrise in the morning. I rise in the morning because I want to see them both. RvdB

A beautiful array of tulips. Gone now perhaps. I have been to White Flower Farms and taken many shots there too. Maybe another trip is in order. Thanks for reminding me, Thad.

A wonderful shot, Thad! The bright colors are terrific, and I like the relatively narrow depth of field. Very nice composition. Well done!
