Tulips in bloom in Denver’s Civic Center Park:

Nothing of profound significance here, I just liked the pattern these were planted in.

Apple blossoms herald the end of winter in Colorado.

Nasturtium

A.k.a Pohe Haole (Tropaeolum majus), brought to you by the Limahuli Garden & PreserveÂ (part of the National Tropical Botanical Garden system) on Kaui, Hawaii:

The Limahuli Garden and Preserve is a neat little place to stop by should you ever find yourself up on the north end of Kauai (get to Hanalei, then continue west until the road ends). Â Beautiful views, lots of great plants and flowers to see and shoot, and you get a bit of history in the mix as well. Â Nasturtium was introduced to Hawaii in the 1800s, so this was shot in the “Plantation era” part of Â the garden.

A scene in New Orleans’ French Quarter:

I took this out of a conference room window in a hotel I stayed at a few weeks back — and thought this was a fun composition, even though (maybe particularly because) it’s got a little secret.

That nice-looking wall in the background? It’s not a fancy hotel or luxurious home — it’s actually a well-disguised parking garage. Makes a nice background, though…
