The morning turned out to be chilly and cloudy. Usually, on a Saturday
morning, everyone craves sunshine, but we didn't complain, on the
contrary, we were actually glad for the clouds - photographing flowers
is much easier in soft light.
First, we stopped by these beautiful Bleeding Heart flowers. I
suspect I will stop by them again the next time I am back at the Denver
Botanic Garden :)
Anemones are such amazing flowers. Simple and delicate. Simply magnificent!
Tulips of different shapes and colors. I adore them! I took plenty of photographs of them yesterday too :)
These double daffodils look like ordinary ones and yet, at the same
time, are completely distinct from them. It was the perfect excuse to
stop and snap a couple of shots.
Ants and flowers are the best friends. Flower buds secret sweet nectar
to attract ants. The ants, in turn, forage on other insects who may
damage the flowers or hinder their blooming. Everyone wins :)
A few more anemones and double daffodils...
And I simply couldn't pass by these Summer Snowflakes without snatching a shot or two, aren't they beautiful?
This peony is about to burst into bloom...
...and when it opens up, the petals will look exactly like that. Stunning!
It’s all about the angle. You see different things depending on where
you focus your gaze... And, naturally, right now you’re focusing on
these bright yellow tulips, aren't you?
But if you shift your focus... you might discover other delights that nearly escaped your notice at first ;)
California poppies, tulips, anemones and daffodils... What a wonderful morning!
As you can see, this time the sun broke through the clouds and illuminated everything around - both the flowers and the water droplets. Well... light helps capture the beauty of the world, and although we preferred cloudy weather... we certainly didn't complain about the sunshine. We simply embraced the fact that everything around us was now bathed in light :)
