Tulips are (really) red

These are as photographed. No colour manipulation. It's the first bed of tulips I've seen in Ottawa and was in front of Foreign Affairs. They were backlit and were nearly translucent. Truly magnificent, colour-wise.

Woof! Not quite like the three red tulips I have in my garden. I hope the Festival isn't over before it starts!

I think they must really get the sun. They're facing due west and the building sort of wraps around, reflecting a lot of heat back at them.
