Orange Tulips
All of these photos were taken within a
half an hour of each other as night gave
way to the daylight.
I found these at our local grocery
store and took them to sit on the
piano at church yesterday.
I just had to bring them on home
rather than have them sit and be
lonely this week.
Aren't they just the most perfect shade
of orange? I love them against that
special shade of blue that you can only
find at sunrise or sunset.
Timing can matter in photography.
Linking up to Mary's Mosaic Monday
and Sally's Smiling Blog for Blue Monday.
A treat for you...
Stop by this blog to see some
of my favorite young people
enjoying Spring. Lindsay is so
very good with the camera!

Stunning tulips, Becky! I don't think that I have ever seen them in such a vivid shade of orange. As we all know, orange is the happiest color.

So pretty!
Here's my Blue Monday post, have a great week ahead!
Hi Becky, thank you for dropping by my blog. I have popped over to you now. What wonderful photographs of the tulips, a very vibrant colour. Also your candles sound and I can almost smell them, great, shame the postage would be too much to order some!!

I am going back to see more on your blogs and will become a follower!! Have a good day, Jackie in UK.
How nice to share with the church folks and then be able to enjoy at home. Love the blue background. Happy Blue Monday.
I guess you just answered the question I put out on my blog yesterday about what color/type tulips you like best:) I agree the color is wonderful. Have a good week.

Georgeous flowers and mosaic!
Thanks for stopping by - we lived in York Pa over 10 yrs. - just down the road from Lancaster Co. We know your beautiful part of the country very well.

Just beautiful! I loved the photos!
I've never seen orange look more lovely! I need some tulips...
Love the tulips, especially the mosaic picture of them!!
They are a lovely shade of orange, with a copper-y cast. Nice use of light and sky, too.
I love orange and I love tulips :D I'm so glad you brought them home so they wouldn't be all lonely at church during the week. The mosaic with the blue background of the sky is stunning. Happy Blue Monday~
Oh Becky your photos are awesome ... they make me want to go back to Holland, again.
Hugs, Marydon
They are sooo pretty! I was thinking about stopping at the store and picking up a lil bouquet to perk up my bedroom :)
Hugs,

Orange is perfect, Becky!!! They are gorgeous and I love the mosaic. I still haven't learned how to do that yet. I MUST learn!
Oh I love those orange tulips, especially against the brilliant blue background; perfect together!
If your tulips start to droop, drop a few pennies into the vase; they'll perk right up.
Really!

One of the most beautiful orange tulip post I have seen. You did a marvelous job and brought a pleasure to a lot of people in church. I truly enjoyed every shot of these tulips.
So beautiful! I just love them!
Beautiful! I'm so ready for Spring! Thanks for visiting Color Chic
