Floral joy~ 5

Flowers from my archive’s and camera roll.

“A tulip doesn’t strive to impress anyone. It doesn’t struggle to be different than a rose. It doesn’t have to. It is different. And there’s room in the garden for every flower.” – Marianne Williamson

🌷 Tulip

“The tulip is a courtly queen, whom everyone bows to on first acquaintance.” – Johann Wolfgang von Goethe

“Tulips are the perfect embodiment of grace and elegance.”

The end

What can I say, this is the end of the story of this pink hydrangea, I tried, but it still just dies on me. I had to see if I could get some last photos of it. This was one way to spend couple hours.

Editing to get a atmosphere to them was fun. Dark, Light, core or less contrast. texture…
