I believe the bulbs at most of these farms here in Washington are from Holland and many farms are owned by Americans of Dutch decent. I've visited many of the farms near where this pic was taken and this is just one field...There are so many different kinds and colors that I've seen there that I'm sure some of them rival the bulbs that are grown in Holland. The tulip is such a diverse unique flower...I love the purple ones with the ruffled edges and the ones with the double petals...there are so many different kinds and colors...I love them all..just happened that I posted a field of pink varigated tulips..I have many pics of other different fields...I think the bulbs in the Skagit Valley (where pic was taken) are "real" bulbs imported from Holland, just grown in a comparable climate in the USA...It would be cool if you could share pics of fields from your part of the world... I'm sure they're very beautiful.

If I could, I would, but I live like 150km away from those fields.

This is gorgeous! Great depth of field. And I love that the 'watercolor' effect (I believe that's the one you use a lot) is not too obvious.

Thank you very much for the compliment. I always appreciate constructive feedback so feel free to say what you think of anything in my gallery. Yeah, I used the watercolor filter. and then faded it back quite a bit. I'm an artist before I'm a photographer but hopefully don't mess my pics up too bad in ps. I just really appreciate that one can add texture to enhance photos etc...w/software. ...and yep, I guess I use watercolor quite a bit (also like drybrush and to layer filters...) thanks again, Gail
p.s. enjoyed browsing your gallery...good stuff
