What a fun image of this tulip in all her glory, showing off her assets. Why not go out with a bang!? Lol
I think the inside of a flower is even prettier than the outside.
You did a beautiful job capturing its beauty.

Pat...This is a stunning capture of the last few days of a tulips life. (I may have cropped the top of the image to where the top curl is, that is just me). The colours are just beautiful with the yellow centre, darker stamens and magenta coloured petals. The centre clarity is wonderful and the blurred green background sets it off. Quite a unique capture which suggests a creative approach.

    Thank you so much Chris, I appreciate your thoughtful review! I will play with the crop and see what it looks like , I try to photograph flowers from different angles.

Hi Pat, I love the way those two petals are curled over the main tulip. I think it adds a lovely artistic touch to the already beautiful flower. Love the red shade of the flower and the bright yellow center. Focus and lighting show this tulip off to its ultimate glory. Very pretty My Friend and a joy to see! :o) Nancy

A good looking nature image posted here! Yes, it is sad when lovely blooms die, but we cannot control nature. Your fine and appropriate composition gives us a nice view of that old bloom. Nicely done!

The green and brownish colors in the background and bottoms are nice, well done behind the flower. The petals are lovely, especially the sheen in them. The focus is on the stamens and pistil which is noticed right off. The yellows and others are outstanding. But it does really look like a very nice painting focused upon just portions of the tulip. Thanks for sharing.

This is really Cool,Pat!
It's a great looking picture,of course.but what I'm liking about it the most is how it immediately makes me think of the classic song 'Dead Flowers' by the Rolling Stones! ( That's a song that means an Awful Lot to this 'Old Villain'! : D )

A pretty photo that could almost be an abstract presentation! I admire the fine details you have captured of the colors and textures of this fading tulip. Flowers are amazing and beautiful at all stages and you have shown that well here. The composition is stunning and helps to put our attention directly on your subject. Talented and skilled!
