May is a good time to catch a few blooming flowers even in Finland. From the cherry blossoms (from the Japanese Garden in Roihuvuori, Helsinki) which have an exotic whiff here as they’re not so common to the sea of tulips from black to red (from Tampere), below are some examples of how pretty flowers can be.

Beautiful shots! I especially like the pink tulip photo – very nice background and depth of field
