Ballerina Tulips • In The Wild

IMG_4139.JPG

Last week I posted cut tulips that arrived via courier... check it out here > Tulips In Da House

Today I'm posting tulips captured in the wild... at a city park! These ballerina tulips have lily-shaped petals that appear more elegant than your everyday garden variety. Once again red takes the prize!

Which ballerina do you prefer, red or yellow?

I photographed the ballerinas with my Canon 5D camera and 70-200 mm lens.

Thank you @juliank for creating @photocontests!

I prefer the red but I really like those pink and white ones in the background!

I need to be more inclusive!

Lol

I prefer both they are so beautiful, have you done enhancement for that? Amazing pic.

Thanks! No color enhancement just adjusted black and white contrast.

I knew there was something different about this tulip. Not sure i have seen one in person, but it looks very nice here.

This flower hybrid was created in 1980!

You know a lot of stuff. Very cool.

The reds are traditional for Spring, however all colors are welcome after the long cold Winter we experienced!🌷

Very true!

I love the way you've captured the light coming through the petals @otage.

And . . .

. . . I actually prefer the white 😁

The sun was in the right spot!

I love it when that happens! 😁

I am left with the yellow ones, it is a very harmonious color although both are perfect, simply the nature is that: PERFECT!

Thanks!

These photos make me feel happy! Happy spring that is!

I am confused to choose it .. because both are equally good. If you have to choose one then red becomes my choice. Because it symbolizes courage. :)

A courageous flower!

I prefer the natural ones, white is the one i would like to receive :) Would look great with my red dress :)

White is a good choice.
