Eliza Waters 
The gray background really makes it pop! Lovely Eliza 🌷
Thank you, Val!
I absolutely love the vibrant colors against the gray background! Beautiful capture! ❤
You’re very kind, thank you, Kim!
Another beauty!
🙂 Thanks, Belinda!
Gorgeous.
Thank you, Gigi. 🙂
Great shot.
Thank you very much, Victor!
Nice us of light. Beautiful shot.
Thank you very much. 🙂
I was going to ask if it was a tulip, but I see that tagging helped me answer my own question. Gorgeous photo. I am like an anxious kid here with the bulbs I planted last fall. I keep checking to see if they’ve grown at all (note: they don’t seem to, at least at the rate I seem to think they should, which is a rate that would be quite unnatural).
If they are tulips, you may have to wait ’til May, unless they are the short, early ones. Most of the bulbs I plant are earlies, esp. snowdrops and crocus, that come up when I really need to see some life and color. I seldom plant tulips, as the voles devour them over winter and I’m dismayed for the loss. I have lots of narcissus, which are poisonous and are left alone.
They are starting to come up (the leaves at least) – and I am happily surprised at the number. Tons of what look like tulips, though so far not many that look like daffodils (except the ones I planted).
So soft and delicate 🌸🌸
Thank you, Trini. 🙂
What a beautiful photo, Eliza. And a beautiful flower too.
Thank you so much! They are beautiful right to the end.
Well, that’s a ‘come hither’, petal, if ever I saw one! 😀
🙂 Thank you.
This is truly “photographic art.” Your talent is shining through Eliza.
Aw, thanks so much, Dor! 🙂
Lovely shot – a vibrant reminder that spring is close.
Thank you, Fi. Every day brings us closer to the great unfoldment!
Stunning shot 🙂
Thank you so much, Sue!
Lovely image Eliza ☺️
Thank you, Frances. Glad for your visit!
Beautiful tulip and nice focus on the shape
Thanks so much, Allison. 🙂
Lovely shot Eliza!
Thank you, Julie!
It’s hard to catch drama in flora shots Eliza but you nailed it in this one. The tulip angst is palpable 8^)
‘tulip angst’ – I like that! Thanks, Frank. 🙂
What a shot!
Thank you, Laurie. 🙂
As usualy-Eliza:-) beautiful-Happy Spring!
Thanks and Happy Spring to you, too! 🙂
It’s like Spring unfurling in all its vibrance and jubilation!
Yay! 🙂
Are you back in NY yet?
Nope. I plan to drive up in my driveway April 7. The daffodils will greet me?
Maybe…things are moving along awfully fast around here. The snowdrops are full out right now and all the other bulbs are pushing up through the ground. Today was one of those perfect spring days – glorious!
I love the angle you chose for this photograph…and the was the sun seems to peel it open…Beautiful, Eliza!
Correct the above—to read: …and the way the sun seems to peel it open!” Typed too quickly! Sorry!
Thank you, Jane. I like the idea of the sun peeling open the petals!
Your photo inspired me, Eliza!
Stunning.
Thank you!
Absolutely gorgeous! I SO wish I could grow tulips but, even if the bulbs are properly chilled in the fridge for 6 weeks prior to planting, our hot Santa Ana winds inevitable take all or most out while still in bud.
Thank you, Kris! Yes, tulips definitely like cool weather and soil. I don’t have many in the garden because of rodents dining on them. But forced for inside in winter, they are divine!
Phenomenal! Oh my gosh, the everything about this image evokes such deep emption. Wow, Eliza! Thank you!
Thank You, Amy. ❤ So glad to know it touched you. 🙂
I love this. ❤ Almost forgot to breathe there for a second, it's so beautiful.
Aw, thanks a bunch, Robin!
love the composition of this shot – just perfect!
Thank you very much, Ann!
So beautiful…my favorite flower 🙂
Thank you, Ann. Tulips have so many beautiful colors and styles, I can see why it’s your favorite!
So pretty, Eliza. Really really special.
Thank you so much, Mary. 🙂
It’s pretty.
Thanks, Bun.
You’re welcome. 🙂
That’s a Bobby Dazzler
Now that is a term that I’ve never heard… I’m assuming that it’s a good thing! 🙂
It is! Remarkable or excellent.
Thank you very much!
What nice framing, and color!
Pretty back-light! I like the selective focus.
Thanks so much, Denise. 🙂
“One photo worth one thousand words” and you just proved this right! Clear photo, perfect light and vibrant colors to embrace Spring. Stunning!
Zaria
Thank you very much, Zaria. 🙂
Preciosa La Luz, Precioso El Colorido, Preciosa La Fotografía… Un Saludo.
Muchas gracias, Jose!
