Tulips 3 Variation

I did post this photo yesterday, and while I was fairly happy with it, I also thought that I would try a different rendition. This is that original version — again.




However much I like the above version, I do see that some may find the background too flat. I did try to mix a little variation in the yellow but perhaps not enough. I'm not sure.

Then, I thought to make another variation. I have to some degree fabricated something resembling a double exposure with a duplicate image of the tulip both enlarged and faded a lot. The background colour, therefore, is more like the flower itself.




I am not sure about which one I like best, and I have changed my mind a few times. Right now, I lean to the first with the yellow background, but if you ask me again tomorrow ...

To me it all looks as if the image has been drawn with colored pencil. Lightly.

I'm not choosing!

I am firmly in the pink background camp - for now :-)
