Stop to Smell the flowers (or shoot them anyway)

Passed the glorious displays of tulips several times and finally got the chance to stop and admire them for at least 60 seconds. They look like something you'd see on an old-fashioned seaside promenade. Wonderfully clashing colours and a miracle they have survived the recent rains, I liked how they were all looking up. Wanted to get nearer but wasn't brave enough to step over the fence onto the neatly manicured lawn.. (who would scale a fence for a photo?!)
Bless you for having a closer look at the staff room window yesterday! It amused me, but it doesn't take a lot! Thank you all and I wish you a Terrific Tuesday mwah

Nice shot! I love the colors and the way they look so perfectly aligned. And the stems are so straight. It looks like it came out of a tourist magazine or something! It's like they were waiting for you! Wow! And I would have scaled the fence if I absolutely had to! Shhh! Don't tell! Excellent job, Phil! :)
