Since it’s still snowy and cold in Ohio I wanted to post another shot from our trip to New England in June 2009. Here is a shot of the blossoms at Portland Head Lighthouse in Portland, Maine. It’s hard to find a picture of Portland Head that doesn’t include these prolific pink flowers.
Location: Portland, Maine
Caught this shot in the backyard at my parent’s house. Mid to late summer, the beds explode with these beautiful flowers every year.
Location: Newark, Ohio
Another shot from Dawes, this one on the hill overlooking the lake. There’s a whole row of Crab apple trees along the road and each one was covered with these pink-ish purple flowers. This tree had the most color.
Location: Newark, Ohio
Finally — a picture not from the archive! This shot is from the arboretum in my town. The recent warm trend has sparked all the trees and flowers into action and a rush of green (and pink) has swept over the entire park. Caught this shot in the evening on one of the island, shooting back toward the shore.
Location: Newark, Ohio
These bright blooms were photographed at the Toledo Botanical Gardens in the spring of 2007. A few weeks of warming weather brought a rush of color to the landscape, and no where was it more apparent, than at the botanical garden.
Oh – and while I’m at it… Happy 311 Day.
Location: Toledo, Ohio
Headed to Irwin Prairie State Nature Preserve this week to get some shots of the leaves and plants as everything starts its crawl toward winter. I caught this shot of some flowers along the boardwalk. My picture taking was cut short by a visitor of the serpantine variety… so I wasn’t long returning to the car.
