  3. Really amazing shots; my overall favorite is where you placed the focal point on the pink tulip. Very cool. And those colors on the primrose just pop! Beautiful job!

  5. Beautiful captures, Barbara. My favorite is the stunning Blue Primrose. I’d love to be able to grow a garden full of Primroses and Gerberas that are similiar. Oh! I haven’t seen a Parrot Tulip before. Neat! :)

  6. All the photos are beautiful, but the blue primroses are just breathtaking. I love all blue flowers–the more intense blue the better. Other than my Desert bluebell wildflowers, I hardly ever see blue flowers in desert plantings, so they are special to me.
    Happy Easter!

  10. Stunning florals Barbara and my favourite are also Cobalt Blue Primroses. I particularly like the diagonal composition and that stunning vivid blue.

  11. Thanks to all of you for your comments. These flowers were a joy to photograph, considering the weather we have had - even if I had to find my flower color indoors.

    And that blue is really blue, isn’t it?
