It is a uniquely lovely composition that reminds me of lavendar fields, though they´re nothing alike. But the color is fantastic! Simple but powerful image.

I assume that you mean the country Holland. As could have been shot in Holland Michigan, the home to the World Famous Holland Tulip Festival. The counting may be a bit off but the shot is right on. The hue of the thousands of tulips is amazing. The perspective of the two people against he field of tulips is amazing. The shot is great and so is the topic.

OK... I finally have a label: "Tilt Maniac."

Frankly I never would have noticed the slight 'tilt' to the horizon had you not pointed it out!

I was so drawn in by the stunning angles/rows of tulips --- and the two people in the field had the good sense to wear blue jackets to complement the warm colors of these tulips!!!

Nice work!

This is simply breathtaking. Reminds of the lyric of the song "almost paradise." I can just imagine the number of man hours required to plant a field like this. It is like heaven on earth. Wish I can visit someday. Thanks for sharing. Well captured.

Very nice composition and perspective with the many different angles and the perspective. Beautiful vibrant colors. What time of the year do the tulip bloom like this i Holland? It is a sight I would love to see, would probably just go crazy, lol.

Best of luck in the contest :)
