Snap shot - Tulips

One of my favourite flowers.
There's just something about them that cheers me up instantly. Can't tire looking at them. There are many varieties available and just love them all.


One of my favourite shot - notice the butterfly?

Rows of tulips.


They are everywhere - in the fields, in rows, in bushes, in buckets & pots etc.


There's something related with tulips and windmills! *wonder what that is :) *


Tesselaar Tulip Festival in Melbourne (Sept-Oct).


Word of advice - wear old shoes as it may get a little muddy and dirty (not to mention faint stench of manure - they also have carriage rides drawn by horses) as you explore the tulip fields! On the way, feel free (if you are not tired spending the entire day frolicking in the tulip fields) to drop by the local fruit and honey farms.

Pictures taken a few years back @ 2006.
