Thank you very much, Matthew.
That helps a lot to explain what one has to do when trying to expand the gear capabilities.
'tulip enrolling'

The "lip" licks already outside ... very subtle color scapew and soft gradients. Love it!

I did a further edit to brighten the image a little and push the contrast. Thanks for the suggestion - hope it presents a little better.

Still very nice...

Spring is more than half over now - rhododendrons are blooming.

beautiful Thomas. What a perfect lighting.
Thanks, I waited, sitting there, finding the right position, for the right moment. It passed by quickly and allowed only a few shots.

Thanks, Thomas.

:-) Glad you like it. I think it's special. Only on very few occasions I was able to fetch it.

Great capture! The color already peeping through, the sharpness just on the right areas. Can't wait so see them flowering here.

I do love rhododendrons. The blooms are exquisite, but plants themselves can look malnourished - it seems that they exhaust themselves in the effort of blooming.
