Sorry I was late for your birthday David, I hope it was a great one! Also sorry I've been away so very long! The first of May we moved lock , stock and barrel back to the beautiful state of Vermont, this photo was taken on the moving trip , we stopped off at Niagara Falls Canada picking up the UHAUL moving van, it was raining so these tulips were the only bright thing to be seen, the ground was soaking wet but the tulips were too beautiful not to try to photograph so I held the camera down and started clicking , hoping that something would come out...:) A bit unorthodox but I'm happy with the result. And once again, Happy Birthday David and I can't wait to look at all the photos I've missed!

So your back 'home' now Donna. And you are all settled in okay now?

These are pretty tulips to brighten up your day - there are plenty growing in that garden. Very nicely presented,

hi Donna

Very lovely macro of budding tulips in such fresh color and tone.

You were one of the earliest critiques when I 1st joined TL, and thanks for that!

Moving to Vermont, and shall we expect very good photos of summer/fall soon?

A marvelous shot here for David Donna! He will love this one! SO glad you dropped off at Niagara! I love that place! I've been twice now, expecting to go more and have more Trekmeets! This is a nice shot, considering your circumstances!

Hello Donna,
Lovely capture here of the field of tulips dancing in the rain.
Wonderful soft colours and tone to the shot, as well as composition.
Well caught, despite the weather and the stresses of moving.
Have a good weekend,

Wonderful colours and composition for David’s special Day Donna. I like the long view and the positioning you have used. I am sure David will love it. I am glad to see you starting to settle in your new home and back with us. Well done.
Warm Regards

The deep reds and greens are good to see even if the day is drab. The low PoV helps for interest here too. TFS. K2

Many thanks Donna. The tulip is one flower I have never attempted to grow, perhaps I should now I live in a cooler climate. Lovely colour and soft detail. TFS,
David

Wonderful bank of tulips Donna. I'm sure the card was appreciated. Drop of moisture on a few of the pentals adds interest. Good contrast between the buds and the deep green of the leaves.

Beautiful tulips,nice picture and composition.

Hi Donna,
the panoramic format/crop has worked very well. Though I feel the part in focus could have been a bit sharper.

Best regards, Daniel
