    Very nice macro shot of the "Tulip", a red-black one, at that.
    Reality is a nice place to visit, but I wouldn't want to live there!

    *whew* I struggled with the crop on this one. I liked the shadows, as well as the color, but there's a limit to how close I can get with the lens, and there was another tulip below it, and one to the right side. Kept recropping, knowing I wanted the shadows to be important, trying to figure out how to make it work. Thank you all for letting me know that I succeeded.
