I found your blog from Connie's and Montanagirl's blogs. I love the perspective in this shot too. It really gives you the feel of the tulip fields that go on forever. I looked back through your posts and you have some absolutely stunning photos. I especially enjoyed your photos of the tulips in Skagit Valley. My son Brian lives there, and we visit there and LaConner frequently. We were there during the Tulip Festival a few years ago and it is absolutely gorgeous when the tulips are in full bloom. Funny thing, when we were there the fields I saw were mostly red. I wonder if different years they plant different varieties. I enjoyed looking at your photos and I'll be back.
Welcome Elaine! Glad you enjoy the photo's. Yes, the Skagit Valley is a beautiful place. Funny, this year I saw mostly Magenta tulips! Lots of other colors too, I just haven't gotten to them yet as far as posting goes!
I grew up in my early years in the Seattle area. Our family then moved to the Yakima Valley, where my parents bought a cherry orchard and grape vineyard. I spent many years in the Yakima Valley, where life was always full of adventures and experiences I would never have had if I had continued to grow up in the city. In my early twenties I moved back to the Seattle area, where I still reside. I graduated college in 1999 with my Bachelor of Fine Arts Degree, in Art. After graduating, I taught art at a local college for several years. I am married to a wonderful husband who supports me above and beyond in all that I do. I have one daughter, Autumn, a son-in-law Kevin, and one Grandson, Christian. My husband and I love to travel, where I enjoy photographing anything and everything! I recently completed Chaplaincy training and am looking forward to receiving my ordination in the next few weeks. My plan is to work with our local Police and Fire Department. I love floral design, I have been a floral designer for 20 years!
These are so stunning!The valley is pretty even without the tulips - maybe next year I can go and enjoy. Does the town have a place to have tea?
ReplyDeleteI love the "vanishing point" perspective of this photo. You could just walk forever down the rows of tulips! Wonderful.
