Day 151/365: Weeping Tulips

May 5, 2011 by info@3QuartersToday.com

Spread the love

My Spring photography theme is still tulips. There are so many colors and moods of tulips that I can’t help but capture each one in photographs.

Tulips Gently Weeping

This one reminds me of the Beatles song While My Guitar Gently Weeps.  What do you think?

Photography Notes: This was taken on my old Olympus digital camera and I adjusted the overexposure by using Photoshop CS2 curves, used my 365 Action which automatically adds adjustment layers (in case I need to use them) resizes, sharpens and bumps the contrast. Then added the stroke for the outline and the drop shadow

Tulips are one of my favorite flowers because they signal in warm spring weather, sunny days and gardening.

I drive around town searching for as many colors as I can to photograph and my favorite spot is the mass planting of red tulips that remind me of Monet’s painting of flowers.

There are several interesting facts about tulips and did you know they are the third most popular flower? Some say they are the new rose. I know I like them better than roses.

Tulip Flower Arrangements

There is nothing more impressive than tulip flower arangements for Spring and Easter. This flower door hanger below is just one idea.

Tulip flower arrangements and door hangers are perfect for spring decorating and Easter.

    I love this – I am glad that the tulips keep presenting themselves to you and begging to be photographed. You are capturing them wonderfully.
