Red seems to be the theme for this posting. The variety in nature amazes me. The different structural elements of each plant seem endless.

Tuesday Blues Blues from a conservatory. The missing track from Miles Davis’s Kind of Blue?

: Behind Bars

Visited the Volunteer Park Conservatory, in Seattle, today. Was a cool, grey day so shooting indoors made sense. Some of the flowers are just starting to bloom. It seemed odd to see this beautiful flower, in bloom, behind bars. I understand the public can’t be trusted, but seems a shame. I’m sure I will be posting more images from my time in the conservatory.
