I took advantage of a Photographer Drop In morning at the U of A Botanic Garden on Saturday. We could arrive at 7:30 am and get 2.5 hours of shooting before the general public was allowed in. It meant getting great shoot with no people in them. The flowers were wonderful.The top left is Chicory, a beautiful pink rose on the top right. A yellow Rudbeckia on the left and a water drops touched white daisy on the right.
I arrived just after 7:30 am and left about 2:00 pm. There is so much to see that one has to spend a good amount of time to see it all. I was happy with my experience.
The garden features a Japanese Garden, a Muslim Garden, an Alpine Garden and several show houses.
The Muslim garden has many pools and several featured water lilies. When I was at the garden early in the day I did not notice the unopened bud but several hours later the flower was open. A sunflower facing into the sun and enjoying every bit.
