It’s an Orchid Night

Tonight I have three photos of orchids to share with you.

Hope you enjoy.

Out of the Snow Comes the Tulip

Tonight’s post is a collection of red tulips to keep us all looking forward to spring and warmer weather. I am most definitely looking forward to spring flowers. By the way it is currently 24 degrees.

A Touch of Color

Tonights post is a tulip I shot a while ago. I sometimes like to play with selective color or partial color in a photograph.

Butterfly Dreams

Tonights post takes us back to the warmth of summer, flowers, and butterflies. I’m including two photos from a trip this past summer to Phipps Conservatory in Pittsburgh, Pa. Every summer they have a butterfly garden with many different types of butterflies. If your in the area be sure and stop by the butterfly garden.

Hope you enjoy.

Miniature Town

One of the nice attractions at Phipps Conservatory is the miniature railroad display that they out up every year. And every year I am just as excited as the last to photograph it. Somehow it has a way of making you feel like a kid again.

Portrait of an Orchid

So yesterday the photography club I belong to took a trip to Phipps Conservatory in Pittsburgh, Pa. This is always a nice trip for those that go and we had a great time. And on a side note we always go as a group out for a late lunch and yesterday we went to the Spaghetti Wearhouse, another one of my favorite places to go.

Hope you enjoy the flower portraits:

Today the photography club that I belong to visited Phipps Conservatory in Pittsburgh, Pa. I am working on the photographs and will be posting several tomorrow but here is a small teaser. Tune in tomorrow for flowers and miniature railroad photos.

A Walk Through the Garden….

Recently I had a little free time and decided to stop by the outdoor gardens at Phipps Conservatory and Botanical Gardens. The inside always proves to have great flowers, patterns, and details to photograph. In my opinion the outside has some very interesting things to photograph as well. Included are just a few shots from the walk but I think I was able to come up with a few interesting photos.

If you in the area I would recommend stopping by and taking a walk around the outside of the building. The best part is that there is no charge to visit the outside gardens.
