Monday's Softer Side of Yellow.......


It is a subtle yellow color with the hint of red on the petals.  I had to take the shot with my own shadow shutting down some of the bright light. I still didn't get a perfect focus on this as the various bright light and shadow confuses the camera.


This shot was taken on a cold day showing how they close down to protect themselves from the weather.  I remember when I use to bring these itnto the house and the warm air would cause them to open wide. It is a beautiful tulip and I wonder why I only have two of them.  I know they come in a package of 6.

oh I like it the yellow. The tad of red is so nice as well. The closed buds are so dainty too.

Crowded.....

 The tulip was up first but the peony is now spreading out and shoving the tulip around a bit.
