Photographers Note:
A photo taken at Floriade, a spring festival of flowers here in Australia. I probably wish i could have gone a bit shallower on DOF just to blure the background a slight bit more. I gues i could photoshopi it...

Nice shot Justin! Generally I find tulip shots like this benefit from a more telephoto approach, as it forces them together a bit - with a wide angle you end up with gaps between the flowers, and earth showing through ;) White balance seems a bit cool to me, if you shot RAW try warming it a touch - if you shot JPEG you could try Image/Adjust/PhotoFilter "Warming 85" in PS. Not sure about the cut off flowers in the back though...

it was shot in raw, so i can tinker a bit, however this is straight out of the camera and saved as jpg. Plus i'm sure i'll be back there on the weekend. I did do quite a few with a 200mm prime, but they were focussed on one flower mainly.
I have a 135mm prime i might try out.
