22/365


The end, originally uploaded by nicoleraephotos.

My tulips did not last as long as I had hoped. I took about a hundred shots of this one trying to get a petal that looked like it was falling off. Stood there with the remote in one hand and a few petals in the other dropping them one at a time. Definitely not an easy shot to get!

Funny! That sounds like me blowing on the fluffy snow on my railing, trying to get some flakes in motion. Would have been a good use for my "gorilla pod", andI didn't even think of it! This captures the brevity of the tulip's stay beautifully.

This is just gorgeous! I know it was a hard shot to get. I love the falling petals in the background and the texture too.
