As we continue this series into the new year, I continue to look through some of those older images. Last week’s image (Thursday Throwback – 4) was from 2010 and it tied in with where I spent a lot of my time back then: photographing agility competitions. For this week’s image, I stayed closer to home.

Here is an image that I captured right in my backyard…

April Tulip

This lone tulip stood out in our backyard with its red petals against the grass’ verdant backdrop. I couldn’t help myself but to photograph it, so a quick grab of the camera brought this image about.

I’ll admit that nowadays I would have taken a rather different, more thoughtful approach to taking this photo. Nevertheless, this image is still pleasing overall, with its softer focus and balance of colors.

I hope that you like it as well!
