Before heading out to Alabama, a group of us got together and stopped over in Columbus, Georgia to Callaway Gardens. It is basically this major garden where you can see everything bloom into spring. Here are a LOT of photos that I took while I was there.
This a shot of the chandelier inside the butterfly exhibit.
This is one of my favorite shots. Can't explain why, but it is...
So many beautiful butterflies...
While we were walking around, we found this chapel deep into the woods.
The stain glass windows were mesmerizing...
I'm not a nature enthusiast, but I truly enjoyed my time here looking at the flowers, butterflies and just getting lost in nature.
Which shots do you like?
awesome pictures!!!! My favorite is the one with the pink flower! I just love the detail and how you can see the water droplets on the leaves! So pretty!!!!
ReplyDeleteGorgeous!!! I love every picture!!! Spring is the most beautiful season of all!!!

ReplyDelete@ Plami: After the winter we have had in NY, spring is becoming my favorite season again :)
@ stanimalandannimal: Thanks for your comment. It was a miracle that I got any shots of those butterflies. It took a lot of concentrating and patience ;)
@ The Ginger Fox: Thank you so much for your encouragement. I am really enjoying and learning so much about photography... Just out of curiosity, why were you looking for a stain glass window photo?

Oh my gosh....these photos are incredible!!! So, so beautiful. Each and every one of them. Well done. You ask which I like best? That's hard to say...since I love outdoor nature photos so much, but the chapel in the woods was super too. I can't pick just one...I'd have to say ALL OF THEM.
ReplyDeleteAnd thanks for stopping by yesterday. I always look forward to your visits and comments----
