{Spring 2019: Part 2}

May 7th

Another kind of cherry blossoms here~ The trees I photographed remind me of a very similar tree in the park in front of my house. My sister and I often called the tree the cotton ball or cotton candy tree because of how fluffy the flowers looked.

I actually forgot about these photos, LoL~ So… there are a lot of parks near by where I live. The largest park has a lot of landscaping work done, and has many many flower patches around. Since I am often away at my college, I hardly get to visit the parks anymore, so when I had a chance to snap a picture of the last tulips, I took it.

So while I miss the flora back at home, there are quite a number of plants and flowers at my college. I noticed these irises a while back, and bided my time to get the perfect shot…and I almost waited too long. I literally took this one of the last days I would be on campus, but you know what? They came out pretty nicely.

Some photos I took the Spring of 2019. Not too bad, though looking back, it seems like I only take photos of flowers… and I just may want to expand a bit

3rd April

So the first three photos are of this one cherry tree I saw on my way back home. There were so many bright pink flowers, but for some reason or another I couldn’t get the light and color quite right.

I believe these flowers are called hellebore, and this specific variety is called Anne’s Red (cue all the red head Anne’s and Annie’s in children’s literature)

(I will address the magnolias later in this post) The bright yellow flowers are called forsythia, also known as the Easter tree. It’s mostly native to eastern Asia. I adore them, they are such perky little flowers.

Lol more magnolias, so many magnolias. So my school has these 3 magnolia trees, and they are gorgeous when they are in bloom, and I simply can’t resist. I think I got some okay shots, but honestly I think I was more successful with last year’s magnolia pics. I will post those soon.
