A still life of a transparent glass vase with yellow tulips whose petals fall down. The vase stands on a black side table against a black background. The bunch of yellow tulips are almost finished flowering. The petals are already shrivelling slightly and falling down one by one on the side table. By using a slow shutter speed, the movement of the falling petals has been captured in the picture. I deliberately chose the black background so that the lighting only focuses on the subject, the bunch of tulips. For me, tulips are a sign that spring is coming and that we are leaving the dark winter months behind us. Tulips cheer me up and they are beautiful from the beginning to the end of the flowering season. The colour yellow represents happiness, warmth, joy and gladness. And this is exactly the feeling I get when spring arrives. Does the colour yellow make you happy too?
