I have tried a few times now to grow tulips. The deer and other animals thank me for my efforts and eat them all before they bloom. Next year will be different because I'll have fencing around my garden but this year was another failure. I did get pictures of one brave tulip that managed to make it nearly to the day it would open! (See the inset)

A couple of years ago, Steve and I got the chance to to to an Emu farm, and it was an experience I will never forget. Aside from the emus, the farm was complete with a vegetable garden, an orchard, and everywhere there were flowers planted, including this tulip. Thanks to my A-Z project, I finally got the chance to process this picture, one that I was so happy with and have wanted to share since I first saw it. :)

Explored on June 3, 2014. Highest placement, #1.

AWWWWWWWW - I love everything about this picture. The soft white Petals in front of the dark blue background. Tulips are so proud and simple at the same time, don´t you think?
Every year I look forward to the tulips. FANTASTIC work pod-sister!

Two very beautiful images, Janet. The lighting is marvellous on the white tulip, while the bokeh is great on the inset. I can only assume the emu farm must have had the birds well separated from the garden, as far as I can tell there is almost nothing they will not eat. :)
