Spectacular. When I first brought the page up and saw it out of the corner of my eye, I thought of a woven Guatemalan carpet. Instead, we have an equally colorful carpet of tulips – thanks to you.

What an amazing tapestry of colors!
So that’s what you call the “Tulip Mania” of yore.

Knockout colours, one of the best landscapes on here for some time; Original and refreshing. Love the title also. As I write this I am playing my favourite track by Sting, Fields of Gold. Heavenly. Thank You for this.

This is wonderful, I have seen whole fields of one colour tulips but have not seen these strips before, Magical.

I thought it was a painting. Pretty amazing. I have a blog on nature photography. Nothing quite like that here though.

Glorious!
I’ve seen acres of white cotton fields, and I’ve visited large commercial rose gardens; but they do not compare to the vivid rainbow stripes of these beautiful tulip fields!
I can’t stop looking at your wonderful photo. Thank you so much!
