I like un-flipped as well Rita... but think Tony was just being flippant LOL! #8451593

Debbie E. Payne March 12, 2010

Rita - Great all around. Wouldn't change a thing. I also vote for the original version. Wow, I can hardly wait for tulips to show up around here. #8451606

Anthony L. Mancuso March 12, 2010

I guess Dale is starting to rub off on me Rita..I actually like the flipped better and here is the reasoning...in the original my eye goes into the image and stops on the pink tulip, I then feel I have to consciously move it to take in the purple one. In the flipped I feel as though my eye enters the shot, stops to view the purple, then naturally progresses to the pink...

All of that is just pomp and circumstance of course, since I am clearly in the minority with this opinion! #8451652

Rita K. Connell level-classic March 12, 2010

thanks for casting your vote I entered the original this morning before I flip but for me they both really work for me. In alot of ways tony I can see where you are coming from. thanks again #8451890
