Spring.. I almost missed it lll

 

I definitely missed the tulips at their peak this year during the Araluen Tulip Festival. By the time we got there in the second week of September the tulips were a bit like me, slightly past their best :) They were still very pretty though and I hope you enjoy my efforts to capture that. Final check up on Friday and I'm pretty sure all will be well, looking forward to catching up and getting back to regular posting. Happy Monday, take care and stay safe 🌷

  7. Dearest Grace,
    Lovely tulips in your region. For sure it must be cooler than where we are as you seldom see tulips here.
    Hugs,
