White and purple

Another Saturday and another stroll through the Denver Botanic Garden in search of sparks of beauty. For some reason, most of the flowers I captured that day were either white or purple (with a few exceptions)...

 

But my favorite part was the dew... Yes, it was cloudy this morning and there were dew drops everywhere, which made the flowers even more attractive...

I tried not to photograph too many water lilies... But it was tough. They were in full bloom and looked just as stunning as they did a week ago.

I can't remember if I've seen this flower before. The app suggests it's Rock purslane (never heard of it before). Well... the plants were scattered, popping up here and there, and they definitely attracted a lot of people. Bright and delicate, they marked the end of summer and the beginning of fall. Summer flowers and fall flowers ;)

Oh, the stunning lotus. Every time I come, I see less flowers and more seed pods... This one was one of the last ones, and it looked absolutely stunning...

Well... I spent a little over an hour in the garden, and it was a special hour. An hour of relaxation and recuperation. And when I left, I was already planning to go back there again... Maybe next Saturday :)
