Hi Sandi
I like how this pink tulip is still tightly closed waiting for the right moment for the petals to slowing unfold.
Very pretty and fresh

I love your flower picture, and I love the Fleetwood Mac Song. I love all their songs, and the solos that followed by Stevie Nicks. Thanks for the link.

Just a great presentation Tigz. Loved the music links. I will probably walk with a bounce today after hearing that jazz. Your photo is beautiful. Should enter it in some contest. Very good post.

So good it could almost be professional. I was wondering last night what the macro settings of this lens would give and now you've made me want to try it out. Love the blurred circles of light to the left of the flower in this. Very sophisticated.
