Nature is one of my most favorite subjects to shoot, because I find the wonders of mother nature absolutely exhilarating. The colors, textures, and hues are truly awe inspiring. So when I got the opportunity to visit Keukenhof in Amsterdam, also known as the Garden of Europe, and one of the world's largest flower gardens, I felt like a child in a candy store. Even after having spent the whole day in the gardens and going completely berserk with my camera, I felt as though I could stay there forever in admiration.
Weeping tulips or inverted tulips are crying for those who do not meet their loved ones or crying for those who are far from their love. They are called as " Inverted tulip" because the flowers look at the soil. There are different tales about inverted tulips; Inverted tulips were named as "Weeping tulip" because drops were poured into the soils from their leaves early in the morning. Inverted tulips are one of the protected species and picking up inverted tulips have very high penalties.
Since these flowers and their colors, even in these photographs look so pleasing to the eye, I thought of translating them on to small 12" x 12" canvases, which could truly add value to small spaces and could even be bought for gifting purpose. And these prints can even be re-printed to larger sizes for larger spaces.
To create a stretched canvas print, the photograph is printed directly onto an artist-grade cotton canvas and stretched around 1.0" wooden bars. There is also the option of buying each stretched canvas with a frame where the canvas is flushed inside a wood finish PVC floating frame.
