What a shot. The yellow band of tulips makes the picture pop out. -RK

This has a serious wow factor. Looks like it must keep several people very busy. -Doug

This was actually my first visit to the tulip festival in a few years. It can get quite crowded. I managed to get there around 8:15 (about a 45 minute drive from my home), and there were only about 15 other people around. An hour later, instead of photographing "Many" flowers, I would have to have settled for photographing "Many" photographers. LOL.

this is stunning, lovely, the yellow against the blue sky is what makes is really special, IMO. Penny Street

This must be absolutely stunning in person - I'd love to see it and go to the tulip festival! I bet people come from all over to see these fields. CJ

Good point. I have leveled it off a bit. Thanks.

Beautiful many layers of color here Charlie! It might be just the angle the road was at, but I would be tempted to straighten that horizon up a bit. Great job.
