They positively shine with that back light. The yellow adds the interest, it wouldn't have worked as well for me without that flower - good choice.

Fantastic light and that dark, dark back ground makes them sing! (How easy it is to take "Dutch Bulb Field" shots of tulips; how hard to do something special like this.

Lovely stuff!

It's a great shot, the backlit red ones look fantastic! The yellow one is a nice counterpoint although I wish it was as sharp as the reds.

That could be easily used in one of those 'inspirational' or 'motivating' posters that are sold for office walls if there was some suitable caption. Spot on exposure and colour!

I agree with everyone else - it's a cracker. Nicely done!
