Something about the place:
Tesselaar tulip festival is something which happens every year around September 10th to October 10th in Dandenong Ranges. This is one such amazing place to go during this time of the year as this leaves you in joy and with a handful of beautiful photos. The actual drive to the place itself is a scenic delight.
Location : 357-359 Monbulk Road, Silvan
It all began in 1939 with Dutch migrants; Cees and Johanna Tesselaar leaving Holland on their wedding day with a suitcase full of bulbs. Setting up shop in the picturesque Dandenong Ranges they began growing tulips, an exotic bloom for the time which caused a stir with people jumping the fence to get a closer look. Tesselaar officially opened the gates and celebrated their first Tulip Festival in 1954. From simple beginnings to what is now one of Victoria’s major tourist attractions, the success of The Tesselaar Tulip Festival rests entirely with the unique and timeless beauty of the tulip. There is nothing more captivating than a field of colorful tulips. I have been there twice myself and still couldn't get enough out of the scintillating beauty of the flowers.
Now something about the shot:
This particular shot is a backlit shot of the tulips, with the sun in the backdrop and the tulips & people providing colorful and interesting bokeh. The darkness around the bottom added to the drama of the shot
