Tulips (0/10)
I was out in my garden this morning taking pictures and I thought that I
would share a few of them with the group. The next ten pictures are of some of the tulips in my garden this year. -- Bill R.

I've only rarely managed to produce anything *nearly* approaching the quality of shots that you've presented here... but I always try to put a personal mark on them. Sure, my "personal mark" on floral shots is often an overtly sexual one - because that's what flowers are for, biologically (case in point attached) - but it's a matter of "my own style" rather than than of simple prurience. As beautiful as the tulips are - and yours *are* exceptional photos of them - there's no really personal touch that I can see: they'd be fabulous catalogue shots, but there's no "Bill" there AFAICT. |

Thanks Michael (I think). And thanks to everyone else for the nice comments about my pictures. To me, flower shots should NOT be sexual (or anything else). I post them AS IS, for the beauty of the flower. I don't really enjoy any of the "artsy" shots that some post here (including the ones with "fancy" frames). Mine may be "catalog shots" (or whatever you want to call them) but they are what I like and what I will continue to post. -- Bill R.
