A riot of colour

Took these two days ago at the Botanic garden in Swansea. All taken within a couple of hours of each other. Amazing colours, I thought.

C+C welcome.

Tulip in red mode

"Tulip in Red mood" is my favourite in the series.

Great shots, Rob, especially both tulip images. Very rich, and great tones at the edges.

Cheers,

Thanks Rick. Yes I like the last one in particular. Considering it was shot at mid-day on a bright sunny day it's not come out too bad at all. Nice valentine card.

The extreme colour bokeh in #2 is from some very colourful tulip beds behind.

An impressive set of images. A lesson, I suggest, in noting how presentation is also an important element in what we're trying to achieve.

I love the bokeh in all of them. The framing is nice too. They are all great, but I have to go with "Tulip in Red Mode" as my favourite

Thanks, Wendy. Red Mode is rather tasty!
