Precious sunlight in Alaska

Very colorful and pretty! Great idea!

Oh how pretty! They have done well in this window! And look amazing! What a wonderful composition!

Wonderful Jan! I love the color and the reflections! Great shot! :)

What an absolutely GORGEOUS image, Jan!! Impeccable composition and the reflection in the window adds such a special touch!! btw – We have glorious sunshine today too! Don’t have a picture of it (unsuccessful – so far – at talking hubby into taking me out in the skiff) but you should see it dancing on the water!! Of course… STILL only seeing this between snow squalls! This is just a glorious image to see today!!

Great capture and reflections Jan.
I must try my Tulips like that next year.
I done my Hyacinth like that, and was very successful.

Beautiful work, love it!

Your humour is refreshing Jan, and I love the pretty Tulips! They are lovely and look wonderful in the vases you have chosen. I am so happy you are experiencing sunshine!! With all the volcanic activity in the past several days, the warmth reflected in this lovely image is a blessing!!

So so pretty!!!! Love it!

Jan, this is wonderful! LOVE IT! So warm and friendly and inviting!

love the composition and the olors, lovely Jan

Lovely ! Great composition and happy colours.

Aloha Jan, congratulations on your feature in Alaska ~ Beyond Your Dreams

Jan, I love your little window garden, thanks so much for sharing it with us! Dee

Flowers to chase away the winter blues. Very lovely Jan.

Makes me breathless in it’s simplicity. Beautiful!

Splendid Jan — the visual architecture is very pleasing and this is yet another one to add to your impressive portfolio of flower shots!

excellent indeed;

I love the light on the blooms as well as their reflections in the windows!

Wow! Beautiful shot Jan!! Great lighting.

This is just beautiful.. love the colors and the lighting.. Great Capture :))

Great light through the leaves to highlight the color of the flowers.

Very beautiful Jan, I remember this method from school ;) As for colours, it must be Alaskan sun ;)

Spot on Jan!

beautiful and the reflection, so cool. Love tulips!!!

I like your style…wonder what a single flower would look like in this location.

Jan, this is a superb shot! Great colour and balance!

beautiful

This is so pretty Jan, great colour and reflections

What a delightful shot…..lovely composition.

wonderful pic, like the lighting :)) k

fantastic capture

This is so beautiful! I love the reflections. An instant fav!

Hi Jan. Style, Class, Elegance, Excellence
are looking for photos of this quality and calibre if you are interested in submitting this photo and any other photos you may have of the same quality. Cheers, Graham.

Thanks Jan. The group certainly has some excellent photos on display which we are very happy and excited about. Cheers, Graham.

Maybe not too much architecture there (in Alaska) but I’ve been there and I know, what you lack in architecture, you certainly make up for in scenery, so you can certainly send plenty of scenery shots in instead. Thanks for the kind words about the high standards in the group. I appreciate that. Cheers, Graham.

I love the lighting on this shot and I also really like the reflections of the flowers in the window glass. The colors of the tulips are beautiful with the light filtering through them.

Did you submit this to the “light and reflections” group?. It would be a wonderful candidate for the group I think.

I have submited a couple flower shots to light and reflections and actually got a feature on both , thats why I suggested it to you I think they would do well in it.

Love this composition!

Awesome shot

Beautiful

This is beautiful , colorful, and very creative. I like the way the tulips are reflected in the window too. Great shot!

Don’t you just love these tulips!! You have done an outstanding job capturing them like this! and your windows.. they look pretty clean to me LOL

wonderful composition

Fantastic, well composed and photographed !

This shot was destined for a feature. Just lovely.

Lovely shot!

WOW this is so well composed and shot, love those reflections in the window :) Beautiful photo Jan!

This is gorgeous! Love the arrangement of the flowers!

This is another cool shot! and you should submit this to the tulips group!

wow,,,this is cool)))

What a beautiful card this makes.. Gorgeous!!!

This is so lovely – the reflections in the window are the icing on this cake for me!

This colour and light-filled frame is so delightful!! How beautiful are both the flowers and the way you have captured them. The gentle reflection … words fail.
I come from a land of such harsh sunshine! But got to say I love it. However we live in a world of such amazing contrasts … and your whole portfolio is an adventure into another dimension of it.

Thanks for that Jan. I have Richard on my watchlist and will add Harry Oldmeadow.
The Land of Oz would welcome you with open arms – and remember you can wear an Akubra, big sunnies, and as we say …. slip slop slap. x

absolutely gorgeous!! i know what you mean about appreciating the sunshine!
:)))

absolutely lovely!!

Beautiful. Just reminds me of summer.

Colourful reminder of spring :) Well done, Jan!
(I haven’t seen the original crop but this one certainly works well :))

Oh my Jan…I just noticed this in the recent Tulip challenge and it’s stunning!! LOVE it….

Wonderful, it’s amazing the effect sunlight has on petals.

very neat

You manage to feature tulips in a very artistic way and with originality.

Bulbs look great, very interesting composition, reflection in the window…

Hi Jan, this capture is delightful. Nothing says spring like beautiful tulips. I love the reflection in the window glass…it’s an added bonus. This also provides inspiration as I wonder how I will be able to enjoy spring blossom without a garden to grow them in. Thanks you for that! Nice work. Len

You go girl with that HOME PAGE!!!! VERY WELL DESERVED….just listen to walegeek!!! I LOVE IT!!!!

You’re way too modest Jan! Don’t forget Costco ; )))

GORGEOUS!!!!!!!!!! Congrats on the home page feature :)

Congrats on home page! I’m so glad you made it there because I haven’t ever seen your work or this stunning photo which is very inspiring. I feel for you up there in Alaska, but can see you appreciate the sun – maybe we should do a house swap one day and you can come enjoy the very long days of sun in Western Australia – I certainly wouldn’t mind seeing what Alaska has to offer. anyway, this is a wonderful photograph, congrats again!

Congratulations on winning the challenge!!
