Pink and white tulip
Hope you are not tired of tulip close ups. It’s actually been sunny the last couple of days here in Seattle, so a morning walk was just the thing. Some tulips are still around, and this one was glorious. Now it can live forever on the internet at its peak of beauty.

This is an exquisite low-angle photo with perfect emphases on the flower petal details. Nicely done!

You had to get down low for this shot. Impressive!
MY BLINGLESS SHADOW
A shadow’s an odd sort of thing;
It might have a nose or a wing,
A tail like a dog,
A bump like a log,
But one thing it has not is bling!
