Floriade 2016

[calissa]

Last weekend, Sahaquiel and I made it out to Floriade, the local flower festival. It was much later in the season than we usually go. Perhaps for this reason--or maybe all the wet weather we've had--the displays were even more spectacular this year and turned on quite a show.







The native bees were out in force.













I love the way the pansies below look like watercolour or leaked ink.









I think next year we will go later again and see what it's like.

Thank you! I seem to recall it was you who explained the Rule of Thirds to me. It has made a big difference in how I approach things, so thank you. Having a family full of photographers also helps. :)
