Shades of white
On the rare occasions that flowers come into my possession, I want to make them last beyond their fragile lifespan.
This beautiful spray of white tulips marked an occasion of great sadness, but it was a great joy to photograph them in all their delicacy.
An act of remembrance in many ways.

Great images of tulips – pricks my conscience as I had a wonderful bouquet and enjoyed it but it just sat there.

Ah, what a shame. I have flowers in the house so very rarely that it was a shame to let this go. And there’s something very striking and pure about white tulips.

They’re so very striking, aren’t they? The starkness of winter but with the promise of Spring :)
