[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note |
The tulip, or "Laleh" as it's called in Persian, is a flower indigenous to Iran, Afghanistan, Turkey and other parts of Central Asia.
After introduction of the Tulip to Europe, it gained much popularity and was seen as a sign of abundance and indulgence in the Ottoman Empire. The era which the Ottoman Empire was wealthiest is called the Tulip era, or Lale Devri in Turkish.

Hello Ataley,
Artistic shot for our eyes pleasure !
The "+++" : composition, nice subject, POV, sharpness, DOF, blurred dark BG, contrast on BG, exposure, useful complementary note...
The "-" : perhaps a little too centered...
Congratulations and thanks for sharing,
Christian
