HAPPY EARTH DAY!!!
Tulips are neat even when they are at the end of their blooming stage. I shot this one in near darkness, using an exceptionally high camera sensitivity which produced a grainy effect that actually seemed to work.
Valley Watch encourages everyone to carry their camera with them and to spend some time, stopping to smell/photograph the nature that abounds. If you get a good shot, feel free to send it to us and we might just publish it if we have time and room to do so.
