 Tulip plant I bought at the flower show last week. Shot on a red background, the tulips were a mix of pale orange and yellow. I liked the composition of the plant when I saw and bought it from the same vendor I purchase from every year at the flower show (see both versions of Red Yellow Tulips, Tandem and En Pointe III in my portfolios...all from the same vendor in past years....next year I just got to remember to give them some prints....hopefully this one will be included ;)!)

Nice job Robert! F-stops rule! The addition of grain, coupled with your soft lighting looks great.

Impressed with how much is shown by the lighting, the bw, and the grain: bloom and leaves well modeled.

If this isn't Robert's work, it's worth of being his. Exceptional light, beautiful use of grain. Elegance defined.

Nice composition. The shading in the background makes the negative space much more interesting.

Lovely. Maybe a bit lighter background would work better?
