A closer look at Butchart Gardens

Thanks for all the comments about Victoria! Since I got so many rave reviews of Butchart Gardens, I thought I'd share some of our collection of close-up flower pictures, of which there are many, many, many...












Ah, lovely blossoms! Brian remarked that one of the possible downsides of having digital camera at a place  like Butchart Gardens is that you may spend more time looking through the lense to capture the perfect specimen, and might actually miss some of the splendor of really being there. True, to some extent. But the camera helps us appreciate the splendor long after the blossoms are gone, right? Well, spring was there, at least for the moment.

Lovely pictures, Kam. Gorgeous, actually---and they'll be fantastic for the fronts of those nice little homemade cards that people like to make..don't ya think?? I can tell you had a GREAT time being there, and I'm sure glad you got to go! Love, mom
