red tulips

This is the first shot I've posted on a series of flower shots ...... I've been taking a lot of photos but falling way behind on the posting and commenting front so there's going to be a bit of back-blipping going on

It's a combination of the dreaded man-flu and too much to do, either way, I need to knuckle down and do a bit more.

Apologies to all for not putting any comments up either, I've really only been in front of the computer to work the last few days

These Tulips were bought from a stall in the market. There are two sorts, the floppy ones and some smaller and more upright ones. We were definitely told both were red - I can reveal that the smaller ones that are just buds in this picture aren't red either!
