Eileen's Tulip

Seeing the heart shaped petal in this tulip instantly named it. I knew the love was for my wonderful sister on the other side of the country. She just underwent a procedure for neck pain that invades her life. Ever the trooper, we wait for the good news.

I love the color in the bloom and the texture of the bloom too, Lori.  I wish that the browns in the BG were a bit less prominent.  A nice thought for your sister - I hope for good news for her too!

I agree with Nathan on his points, including hoping for that good news to come for your sister.

I like it like it is, the brown doesn't particularly bother me. I pray your sister will get relief! One gripe, or nit—the black border on a vertical image is a real drag, IMO. I do wish folks would quit using it.

Lori: Very nicely seen and composed. I could see softening the brown in the RLC but its not a big deal to me. Blessings to your sister. May her recovery be swift and complete. >=))>
