Tulip Festival

Ottawa’s tulip festival provides a great place to take flower portraits every year. I have taken portraits in the past but have not gone with the digital camera to do so until now.

I took these photos last Wednesday on what has to have been the weirdest day of the year. It was about 25° when I went for my run… uphill both ways because of my weird route. When I got home I was dying of heat and had to have a cold shower. Then I went back out a couple of hours later and almost froze to death with the wind coming across Dow’s Lake — the temperature having dropped like 15° in the intervening time.

Anyway, enough whinging about weather. Here’s the flowers!

yes, the dew is faked… idea stolen from the owner of a bigger lens

Lovely!

The second last one is just insanely beautiful. I love the swoop of green at the top.

Ooh ahhh

I agree with Keltie, that one's my fave, too!
