[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
It's a bit damp and drear in our neck of the woods on this Friday night, so I've been perusing my collection of shots from the last few months, looking for some visual fireworks. Turns out that's exactly what our local arboretum-and-gardens complex looks for in the spring, and these tulips are among thousands in bloom for a week or two in May. Enjoy!

As for my title, well, these tulips, especially when you get a low POV like this, they leap to the eye in a rush and a flood -- it's a little bit overwhelming, in a very positive sense.

Hello Jim, certianly a shot to catch the eye and cheer one up on a grey day.
The colours are vivid; I love the dense colour to the top of the shot.
Good sharpness.I think your title suits the shot very well.
Tfs, regards Jean.

Oh WOW! Nice THIS is bold! Superb saturation here Jim! Excellent sharpness and the flowers are SO smooth! Nice work on this! Very fun shot!
