It was about 1:00 PM when the picture was taken. The camera was on a tripod and I held a 4 foot difuser above the flowers as close as possible without getting it into the frame. Auto focus was on the whole read tulip. Very little done in post processing.
I may be wrong, but I think that it looks a little OOF because there is so little detail to show in the flower. I picked this shot because it almost looked like a water color painting to me.

you have a very lovely picture here...it seems to ME...that a bit more sharpening could go along way here. It seems that one tulip in the front could really pop...
This seems just a TOUCH fuzzy to me. It's an incredible image with the different colored flowers, and the flowers are gorgeous, but it's just a bit out of focus.
Back to comment... Gorgeous tulips! I only got a total of 6 this year in my garden and they've all passed their prime already. Love all the colors! Well done! 8
