Description

A got a bit wild and crazy with this one. It was a yellow tulip. Several different filters that I cannot remember right now, boosted the saturation, small crop.

Ah, the Wild & Crazy Guy has resurfaced! I have little doubt that you can't remember how you did this. :)

Perhaps you ought to call it When Tulips Party. I like it a lot, Dave. Don't let W&C disappear for so long this time.
