Tulips 2008

I took photos of tulips with Fuji Astia 100F and Velvia 100F. I think Astia's extremely gentle color rendering is suit for tulips characteristics. Tulip photography is similar to portrait of ladies for me.
4th photo is of flowers shining in the dark background and look like Galle's lamp in a dark room. 8th photo is a world of macro photography with Planer 85mm F1.4 that is especially designed for portrait and I hope you'll feel sentimental mind of the flower. Last photo is taken with impression of "neckline of a lady". I made this photo most tenderly with Astia 100F and dual exposure technique.
