Tulip

I wasn't sure on this one at first, but the more I look at it, the more I like it. At first I missed the detail from inside the flower - ideally I would have crept into the garden and shot it from an angle where the dropped petal on the left was closest to the camera - however I was already leaning over a garden wall with the camera on live view at arms length.

Quite a bit of work in PSE to remove the background and remove a halo effect from the edges.

Really like the vibrant colours in this, tulips are very beautiful and you've captured it well, I would be proud to hang that on my wall

Thank you!

Allowing for a slight crop and some minor RAW editing to make it pop, this is almost the original.
