Tulip in Someone Else's Garden

It was a beautiful, sunny 70 something degree day and fortunately, I'd agreed to meet some students today at 12:30, since the proposal was originally due at 11:00 a.m. I'm glad for the extra time (til May 6th) and the end is in sight (despite a 3 hour printer glitch semi-disaster now averted). And I was very glad I had the obligation to walk across campus. There were flowers blooming everywhere (except my garden where the plentiful buds that should have bloomed are now sad sad dried out failures). This is one of many candidates for today's first day of May flower shot.
Beautiful. Isee you are doing the May-flowers challenge also. I am hoping to be able to keep up with it in my second album. We will see.

@libertylady I thought it would make a fun monthly calendar, but I haven't decided how dedicated I'll be to it over other themes. It will be fun to see all the flowers posted! Good luck with it!

@timandelke I had a polarizing lens on it, and then in post processing I adjusted to bring out a little more of the texture.

@anazad511 Thanks so much for both the fav and the follow! I thought I'd been following you, then realized I'd missed several of your photos and that was why I'm so late in "clicking." Your work is wonderful!
