>> Wednesday, May 26, 2010

DSC_0550erh A reprisal of Pretty in Pink. I put it through Photoshop and treated it using the art history brush – similar to what I did to the image I used as a header for the Great Abyss.

DSC_0669er For the most part, the arrangements at the Tulip Festival locations change from year to year. The arrangement above placed two colours of tulips directly beside each other enabling shots with dividing lines like this one. Unfortunately the sparse growth of the tulips makes it a little less dramatic, but you get the point.

DSC_0129er

This purple-blue flower was amongst the tulips at Dow’s Lake (Commissioner’s Park). I took it during my first trip to that Tulip Festival location, which turned out to be a good visit as the Tulips are already a little sad looking (likely due to their early bloom).

Barbados tulips from the Commissioners Park. I have never really seen these guys before. Dave and I gained interest in them when we found a few in our own tulip garden.

Oval Bed

>> Friday, May 8, 2009

The Circle Bed located in Commissioners Park leads to some really great tulip photos and inspired a portion of my backyard garden - my Oval Bed. There are multiple types of tulips in my bed as compared to that of the NCC but I am really happy with how full it has grown.

This dual toned tulip was in a bed of yellow tulips and yet somehow grew with a couple red petals. Very interesting.

There's a Fly on my Tulip

>> Tuesday, May 5, 2009
