There's nothing like Mother Nature

... and it shows in this simple tulip: this yellow, the triangular disposition of the stamen, the delicacy of the petals... pure perfection!

Beautiful.

 

Thanks, K-H.

Yes, I totally agree with your tag line. And this is a good example. Love the deep sweet yellow that allows the rest to pop!

Thank you K.H. and Ece!

 

I'm just wondering if using another camera, a less good (and less expensive) one, would have produced the same effect. Nature can stand for itself but if we try to communicate what we see of it we seem to be quite helpless. I'm not even sure that Leonardo da Vinci would have been able to paint this simple flower properly.
