    I especially like the graceful curves of the tulips in your fifth picture.

    Probably few people, even in New York, know about the Cloisters.

      Thanks Steve. You’re right, few people go to the Cloisters, which makes it a lovely quiet place to visit.

      Me too. It gives us opportunities to enjoy and photograph.

    These are wonderful! Your use of negative space to isolate the flowers is most effective

      Thanks. Love your artsy term “negative space”. It’s been a long time since I heard that.

    It’s hard to pick a favourite out of these so there has to be more than one – the rhododendron, the tulips below it and the purple tulips, though I think with the background the rhodie just has the edge 🙂

    This selection of photos, to my eye, is very fancy looking with your treatment of the background in most of these and the super high definition of the flowers. Laudenum amazing! Love the depth of the green leaves in the Iris. Most of the photos deserve special comment – can’t do them all!
