Kauffman Gardens - Flowers in Focus

This one is pretty late; but hey, better late than never, right?! Yeah, gonna answer myself with a big fat YES! Because I still really wanted to share them so. Whatever.  Anyway, I took all these pictures at Kauffman Gardens about a month ago (the end of April). a really awesome place, they always have gorgeous flowers no matter what time of year it is and a greenhouse!
I just messed around with settings on my camera  and distances and angles to get the flowers in interestingly focused views. Like this one on the left: It is only focused on the first flower in front. I loved the practically NEON colors of these tulips!
Also they had recently water a lot of the plants which was awesome for me because then they had water droplets all of the flowers. I love water droplets/dew on plants and flowers! It makes look so fresh and mystical; just like a new morning.

These raggedy tulips were just spectacular! Rugged and strong,yet still dainty and beautiful! These were my favorite flower there.




The  perfectly white benches and the fluffy white flowered fruit trees together really enchanted me. They looked so complimentary to each other. haha. I softened the photo in editing to make it seem more dream like, to me it looks almost like a painting or something out of a fairy tale world.

This one kind of gives off a layered look. I thought it was pretty darn cool!
Oh.. I love this one SO much!!! I was just walking around in the gardens and looked down to see all these little white petals strewing the edge of the side walk and HAD to capture it. It's almost like a little trail!

So ruffly... That's all that's going through my mind when I look at the photo and the light is really pretty too. haha. Flowers are just amazing to me! There are so many kinds all unique and beautiful!!

Love this crisp  orange-y- amber gold, like the color of a summer sunset.
I can't remember what kind of flower these are, but they are just so cute!

    PS. Have you by chance read the Anne of Green Gables series? Your aerial descriptions very remind me of how L. M. Montgomery expressed with lustrous eloquence the glories and intricacies of the natural world. :)
