Day 106 - Tulips

Although the snow is slowly disappearing here in Quebec, the flowers have yet to start blooming. Feeling impatient, Peg purchased a bouquet of beautiful tulips. They have stayed hardy for the week and add a beautiful touch of colour to the room. I liked the way they looked against the blue wall, almost like they were outside with the blue sky in the background. Can't wait to be capturing these colourful creatures outside.

Lovely focus. I need to fill my house with flowers this time of year - waiting for more to bloom outdoors.

I am practically counting down the days until the Tulip Festival in Ottawa. I'm not sure whether they are predicting early blooms this year or not....

I love the graceful bend in your bouquet.

Gorgeous photo of tulips...I love how you composed it. Tulips never stay long enough for me...I'd love to have them 6 months out of a year!
