Alnwick Gardens ~ part 3 ~ flowers

By ( 30 )

Part 1 HERE.    Part 2 HERE

Of course, a garden isn’t really a garden without flowers.  At the top of the central water cascade is where they’re all at, in a walled-off courtyard.  Plenty of tulips in bloom in April of course, all gloriously coloured, such happy flowers to see after a long grey winter.

 

a lovely magnolia was in bloom too,

 

always glad to get the macro lens out.

Stay tooned folks, more to come. 🙂

    On form with that macro stuff, FR. Sharp as a tack, and a delight to see. 🙂
    Best wishes, Pete.

    Looking down into the protected center of the tulip is a clever, gorgeous shot.

    I’m enjoying this trip back to spring. Those spring flowers are just so special after the cold and dark winter.

    Ah, the colours.
    I’m going to tilt my monitor down and lay on the ground, so I feel like i’m lying among them. (it’s a rough day)
