Colorbreak Tulip

When we visit the tulip fields in the Skagit Valley we always spend some time at the gardens of Roozengaarde Bulb Company and I always look there among the thousands of tulips for those that have color break. I understand this is caused by a virus, but am fascinated by the weird color combinations and patterns it produces. This was one of this year's finds. And I do realize the photo is somewhat overexposed, but liked the effect.
