Tulips on fire! What a magnificent glow, Marty...love the translucency and the shadow of the stamens from the wonderful backlighting...and the blue is the perfect complementary touch...your own Photo Muse whispered in your ear to forget about moving that chair, you know...and so it stayed right where it belonged all along :) #9334655
