The Paparazzi
Continuing where I left off in yesterday's post, I always like to catch others photographing tulips. These are still the early colours we're looking at- some of the beds on this evening stroll were still green.
I'm like you, I love photographing photographers. They're usually so engrossed in what they're doing they won't notice, and they usually stay very still so they make perfect subjects :)
How gorgeous are the pink and cream tulips, j'adore! Are there bunches of tulips for sale William? I saw them in the city last week, but so expensive for a small bunch!
Beautiful!
ReplyDeleteI am always interested in other photographers. I like to see what angle their photo is being taken. More great shots of these beautiful tulips.

ReplyDeleteBeautiful, no wonder people are photographing them...
ReplyDeleteIf you think about it, isn't it amazing how many tulips in various colours there are at the Tulip Festival.
ReplyDeleteMagnificent display, everybody wants to photograph it...
ReplyDeleteOh those tulips are so beautiful and such lovely colour combinations
ReplyDeleteTulips are my favorite. I just wish they lasted longer.
ReplyDeleteLove the fancy yellow one! I saw several of that type around this year. When it's open a bit more, it looks almost like a peony or rose.
ReplyDeleteThe purple and white are always my favorite! I like secondary colors.

ReplyDeleteso pretty. :)
ReplyDeleteThey're not at their peak yet! Yes getting other photographers in a photo ads to the tulips.
ReplyDeleteLove all your tulip photos. I believe they looks very fantastic in nature as your photos show it.
ReplyDeleteI would not be surprised if there were hundreds of photogs out there taking pictures of these gorgeous flowers!
ReplyDelete@Norma: indeed!
ReplyDelete@Grace: there's usually not a problem finding tulips for sale here or there, and come fall, a lot of gardening shops stock the bulbs for planting.
@Tex: I can never get enough of them.
@Red: this weekend will be quite colourful.
@Orvokki: thank you!
@Lowell: on the weekends especially, the main sites can be very busy.
Wow! I too would be photographing these gorgeous tulips and also catching other photographers doing the same thing. Ha ha!
ReplyDeleteThe numbers of flowers are amazing, William!
ReplyDeleteSimply gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteThey are worth all the photographing.
ReplyDeleteStunning!! I never seen a place that has this many tulips.
ReplyDelete@Nancy: it's fun!
ReplyDelete@RedPat: there are so many of them.
@Sharon: they certainly are.
@Jan: that's true.
@Bill: it really brings out the tourists. And since the weather's cleared up, I'll be heading over to this park in a bit to take more shots.
I would be right there with them if I could!
ReplyDeleteFabulous colors. Of course, you would not be the only one taking photographs.
ReplyDeleteThey're all coming along nicely. A gorgeous display.
ReplyDeleteOur kids went, taking the in-laws. It's such a photographic spot!
ReplyDeleteThe awakening tulip colours are delightful. Yes. Photographer-watching and photographing them in action is something I enjoy too.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful, beautiful.
ReplyDelete@Lois: I'm hoping they're more out when I stop by tomorrow or Wednesday. They've been late this year.
