I agree with Mike. Everything about this shot is great. I’ll even credit the tulips. I’ve photographed tulips often. Even a bunch that seems of second order will surprise you. That bunch, or even the most promising bunch, no matter how carefully trimmed and arranged, will sit in the vase almost as if reluctantly. Hours later, usually next morning, they’ve straightened and leveled themselves and taken up positions like a dance group evening its row to take a bow. The chemical communications between trees in a forest and other plants in soil beds must continue in the vase. Here thIs bunch, possibly new, or a day or two old in the vase, have established their relationship, each with same inclination to sinuous movement, not rubbing shoulders, heads held high, communicating discreetly without meeting each other’s gaze, adopting the same one leaf cravat, worn with the same flair, the lowest one, included for her possibly superior talent despite her height.
