Photographer’s Note
Milton Hershey build a factory to make chocolate and a town for its workers in 1904. Today Hershey Chocolate is the most popular brand in the US. The yellow silos in the background hold cocoa beans and the ferris wheel just below the silos is part of Hershey Park - a Disney Land type amusement park. Mr. Hershey also built a hotel and gardens on a hill overlooking the town. In the spring over 30,000 tulips are in bloom - of which you see a few here. Later in the spring and summer over 7,000 roses come into bloom. The gardens and amusement park are major tourist attractions in central Pennsylvania.

Good evening, Peter,
Wow, what beautiful color and depth you have achieved in this shot. The foreground tulips are remarkably clear; it seems you have managed to retain the delicacy of their petals by not making the mistake of over-processing (good for you!).
I have been past the exit for Hershey Park many times over the years (I am only an hour and a half away) but I've never visited. This is actually the first time I have seen it! Thanks for the introduction :)
Regards, Lisa
P.S. About "hopperfan"... is that Dennis or Edward?
