the colour of spring

..."Forget our fate, the pedlar sings.
Set up to sell my soul,
I've lived a life for wealth to bring.
And yet I'll gaze [at]...
The colour of spring,
Immerse in that one moment,
Left in love with everything,
Soar the bridges that I burnt before,
One song among us all"...

the saturated colors almost make the flowers seem to bleed into each other in a way that i like. like many of your photos, it has a bit of a hypnotic quality.

These are some of the most brilliant tulips I've ever seen. They brighten my day (which is dull overcast) and make me believe once again that spring is coming. Snow flurries yesterday!
