I am enjoying all your tulip photos. I am fascinated with the background of some of your snapshots; those buildings, esp the glass one, are interesting. What is that building, anyway?
I can imagine that's a popular area for photographers in this time of year, just like the tulip fields overhere in the Netherlands are popular in spring.
All are wonderful and beautiful photos!.
ReplyDeleteTomás.
How I wish I am one of the photographers. Have a great day!
ReplyDeleteSimply stunning show of tulips
ReplyDeleteYou must have a record number of tulips in Ottawa this Summer!
ReplyDeleteMust be a lot of fun walking and admiring the tulips. A great thing for an afternoon stroll. Where are the French impressionists when you need them?
