Description: Photographic study by Brian Johnston of this plant, with many fine images both macroscopic and microscopic.
A close-up view of two 'parrot tulips' The flamboyant flowers discussed in the two articles this month are certainly different than the normal garden-variety tulips found in most spring gardens.  What makes them so special to a macro-photographer, is their continued visual interest as one moves up the magnification scale.  Each bud can be considered to be a colourful sculpture, with striking structure that continues to interest the observer as he or she moves closer.
