and I was simply overwhelmed by the light 

 coming through the orange tulips!

Tulips

One sunny day, I took my tulips outside

 to see the sun through their petals.

 But now they have finished.

These tulips were still at the grocery store, 

 in pots, past their prime.

 I find aging tulips to be almost more interesting than ones in their prime...

You know spring is approaching 

 when you can buy tulips in the grocery store.

 I will take what I can get...

Skywatch Friday

The last of the tulips, looking up.

The shadows on the petals are interesting.

Double Tulips

The double tulips are blooming.

I love the way the stamens are hidden by the petals.

Most of the tulips I see do not even have buds yet, but these are blooming!
