Tulip and Bokeh

I'm working on an uncallibrated monitor since my desktop isn't useable so hopefully this will be appropriately colored and lightness.
I was so happy to have my peeing hummer get such a wonderful reception from you and make it to the PP. I'll probably post another hummer in a day or two since I still have the memory card and can use my laptop for now.
This was taken down in Coos Bay at Shore Acres. We had driven down to Coos Bay in hopes of seeing nesting egrets but there were none to be found so we went to the Shore Acres garden instead. It was the one sunny day we've had for ages and I really liked how the sun made golden bokeh...who says you shouldn't even bring your camera out in the middle of the day?
Thanks for your visit, comments, suggestions, favs. This is best on black if you have time and inclination
A beautiful close up. Fabulous. Fav.

Love the texture of the tulip and the way it's framed by the sparkling bokeh. There are certainly pictures that can be taken in the middle of the day.

Lovely contrasts and bokeh! Have you been watching the live webcam of the eaglets hatching in Washington DC? They expect the second one to hatch sometime this weekend. Cute!

Lovely focus and bokeh. I can imagine this being very beautiful in B&W, too.

It's so perfect, Jane -- I love the color tones, and the bokeh looks like gold.

@pflaume I'm posting it in my extras for March 20. It was a great idea to try it in b and w though since we've had months of mono weather I found myself perked up with the one sunny bright colorful day!

I think I prefer this colour one more. The bokeh really twinkles, and the colour of the flower is so nice.
