    Great frame of tulips. Like the composition and balance of dark BG and flowers. Well exposed flowers in tone and details. TFS.

    Cheers,

    John I like it even if it was taken at midnight The tulip flowers of course are beautiful but I really do keep looking at the leaves - the lighting is excellent as is the detail.

    Nice John. The composition and technical aspects are excellent. And the flowers seem to glow.

    Beautifully executed. Love the rim lighting. Fantastic colors which glow against the black bg. I only with the dead flowers (daffodils?) were not present.

    Gorgeous subject and light, and another beautiful stack. I love the rim light effect on the leaves. The dead blossoms make an interesting wabi-sabi counterbalance to the beauty of the fresh flowers.

    Stunning light and colors on the flowers! Also nice comp and the black background works well to set off the bright colors. As good as this is, my eye keeps getting pulled away from the tulips to the dead blossoms. Might be good or bad depending on your point of view.

    It has a bit of a "Velvia" feel to it which I like.
