I am always content to find a bit of beauty in unexpected places.
Just as I was ready to throw out last week’s tulips, I took a moment to see them once more, as they were and found their forms–lolling tongue’s and grounded wings–more fascinating than the perfect bloom.
And so I am sharing them with you. A last gesture of appreciation!
Yes absolutely. I did the same with mine. Too good to miss!!!!
Thank you!! This made my day. 🙂
My Dear, you have a photographer's eye. Seeing the beauty in the fading blossoms. LOVELY photographs all!

These are wonderful images – vibrant colours with twisted petals against a backdrop of green. ……..such a versatile flower, beautifully captured.

It's like seeing a good friend leave…yet the memory of their beauty lingers on.
Good morning! How amazing to log on to so many great comments. I am especially thrilled by being encouraged by Wyn–thank you! But one thing I found interesting is that I didn't find the tulips sad at all–not even bittersweet–just lovely. And Chris, thank you for the tip–I knew there was a trick that I had forgotten to keep them longer–next time, I will try this to be sure…
