The two-colored tulips in the garden of my neighbor and friend Cindy Dyer were open yesterday and they are awesome. The first macro shot makes the tulip look almost like a little pinwheel. The second shot gives you a greater sense of the colors and patterns in these beautiful tulips—the delicate feathering of the red on the yellow petals is simply breathtaking.

A very unique shot with that first one! Never saw such a close up of the inside of a tulip. It does give the impression of a pinwheel!
Very nice detail Mike!
Beautiful colours and details Mike.
Thanks, Chris. I’ve really been craving bright colors this season, which for us is the beginning of spring and is, I guess, the beginning of autumn for you.
Painted by the garden fairies 🙂 So beautiful!
Thanks, Eliza. Garden fairies? Why not?
Their cousins are the ones that paint the frost on. 😉
Gorgeous!!
Thanks, Molly.
This made me happy. I’ve always especially liked tulips. 😊🌷
I really like tulips too–they are usually a cheery, everyday flower, nothing fancy or complex about them. 🙂
Do you have an Instagram account, Mike? Any books yet?
Open for business! It’s good to know that some things still are.
