Some quick snaps of tulips in today's snowfall. The last image I haven't got the settings quite right; it's a little dark and dull. Funny how snow can get you all inspired and get the photo-juicies flowing...
Thanks everyone - shame the last pic is so dull just wish I had thought of the fill in as Ryan suggests at the time. Sadly the snow has all gone now; its a beautiful Spring afternoon now.
I think the last one is my favourite - somehow the flowers stand out even more in the somewhat dull picture - makes me want to reach out and dust the snow off the tulips.
Lovely pics - I adore the first one. I was so overexcited on Sunday it was ridiculous - shrieking Nick awake when I looked out of the window and saw snow! I may have some snaps of my tulips in the snow too, btu camera battery was dying in me so probably 2 at the most - msut check the memoray card this evening.

Great shots, though I think a little fill flash would have helped...I hear you might be in Spain soon, BCN?

Beautiful photographs Andrew. I was also out with my camera earlier today, wasn't it lovely out there?

Wow! Andrew, these are beautiful.

WOW! I love these photos. Probably more so because we don't see snow here. But I really do love them a lot.
See you in CLICK! judging :-)

Love the tulip pics. Can they actually survive the extreme cold temperatures like this?
