Love is a Tulip

simple and beautiful! Love the way the light hits the petals!

Great photo! Love the lighting, instant fav. Amazing shot!

This is gorgeous Mark, so beautiful. Pure, clean, uninhibited and strong. I love how the tulip stem can support the weight of the tulip head – they always seem so strong and proud in the wind – holding on for grim death, yet surviving everything that the elements throw at them.

Even the name is love – Love is Two lips [tulips] kissing

Absolutely fantastic work here.

Beautiful use of light Mark.

Fantastic! I love the soft hues that are barely visible.

Like the yin yang feel to this image! The soft delicacy of the beautiful petals vs what looks like an angry sky!

Or a block of Cadbury dairymilk chocolate.
The desaturation works well here Mark.

I have been trying to think of a suitably wonderful comment for some time now but I am coming up with de nada that will do it justice. So I am simply going to say this.
