The Butchart Gardens
I lived in Victoria for 5 years but never visited the
Butchart Gardens until after I
moved to Vancouver. Here are a few shots I like:
Single Flowers:
I'm not much of a fan of taking my tripod so most of these shots are hand
held.
Bunches of Flowers:
What's so great about the Buchart gardens is how well the backdrops are
maintained - it's very easy to isolate individual plants.
Places in Day:
Lots of cool things and scenes in the gardens.
Places at Night:
The lights are on over the christmas period and they are spectacular.
The gardens set up a 13 days of Christmas around the grounds (I think they
only have up to seven right now), so there is a directed walk of things to
see.
Places at Night in the Snow:
It so rarely snows in Victoria, it's a privilege to see the gardens covered
in snow. Of course they are difficult to present on a computer, but
you get the idea.
