Maybe the auto-correct overdoes the saturation and contrast? Intrigued by the contrast of the featured bloom and the blue violas, but the gardener in me is dying to know is that a rugosa rose or a peony or something I don't know and how did it get there? (I have a white rugosa under which I encourage self seeded blue violas - a colour very difficult to capture and which of course changes according to the time of day.) ETA: oh so it is a tulip - I was going to include that but I thought naah, the petals aren't tulippy. Great combination.

Bold, almost aggressive, but everything still serves the tulip and water drops.

OK, so it may be a tad soft, but it shows this tulip quite well in its white and pointy virtues.

OH, you have shown EXACTLY what you love here. Definitely Iris, but definitely abstract.

Nice whites and just enough definition and softness to get the gestalt of Phlox.

Contrast of daughter and bucket and contrast of white and black: stunning visually and conceptually. Enviable BW conversion and child!

ETA: interesting domino segue.

Wonderful. I ask myself if this is a photograph of a person or a photograph of light which gives this a great dimension.
