At long last:
That photo shows the most accurate color, but this isn’t bad.
And I do like the lighting in this third shot.
The black tulips are lovely but hard to photograph well. For images, the white tulips stole the show.
I didn’t do a whole lot this weekend. The cold I’d been fighting off all week kicked in on Saturday afternoon. It could be worse – that was after I met last week’s deadlines, and after we went mushroom hunting Saturday morning.
No morels, but everyone had fun.
Even Morgan, who got the house to himself for a while.
Like the black tulip, the black cat is difficult to photograph well. It’s rare I get a photo of him that turns out well.

Beautiful! LOVE the black tulips!
Ooooh! I want black tulips! Do all tulips grow anywhere other tulips grow?
Really lovely flowers. Found your blog by accident. Really love your photos.
Thank you – I’m glad you all enjoyed the photos. I wish you could come see the real flowers too.
The black ones should grow anywhere that other tulips thrive. I got them from Brecks. The links for the varieties are a post or two back.
Oh wow. I want to capture those flower colors in paint! I don’t know if it’s possible, especially with the glow to them. Gorgeous! I really want to try to match that–if I do, I’ll let you know.
