stalk and petals/complementary colours

The last of a bunch of rainbow tulips. They fell to bits you have to believe me!

Lovely flatlay and colours, they do that here to ;-)

[Sarah Bremner]

That's beautiful.
I'm reminded of my lovely art teacher at school many years ago now, who said when we were doing design:
If you're not sure about which colours work well together go out and look at nature!!
How right she was! 😊

This would be a flat-lay if you stood over it and photographed it perpendicular to the surface. Would you be interested in doing a second shot of it?

[Casablanca]

I like @jyokota's idea. I like the little scattering of pollen around the stem

[Hazel]

@jyokota @casablanca

It's in the bin!! This is a bit similar to 'knolling' which I did for another site - not sure if it's the same as flat lay?!

[Peter]

Lovely setup beautifully thought out and captured Hazel:)

[Peter Dulis]

Lovely capture ...

[Christine]

Very pretty.

[Bep]

What a nice idea!

[Santina]

nice photo, a modern composition, unstructured tulip

[Junko Y]

I'd never heard of "knolling" but at quick look it seems to be similar if not the same as "flat-lay" so I'll do some more research. Thanks for tip!

[Carole Sandford]

Looks like a DIY flower! Lol

[Hazel]

@carole_sandford

I think some extra bits would be needed!

[Pat Knowles]

Tulips do soon fall to bits....they are lovely at this time of the year...I have some really pretty ones on my kitchen table that have gone from white to the very palest pink.

@pcoulson

Peter, thank you!

[haskar]

Love it.

[wendy frost]

Great idea for half and half and use of all the bits.

[sarah]

I bet it was pretty

[Shutterbug]

Very nice for one last brilliant showing.

[David]

Splendid still life!

@lostphojo

I was busy shooting the remains of a bunch of tulips when this suddenly came to me.
