I took this picture in April at the Gardens: how annoyed many of us were at the late snow. How I would love just one evening of snow in July!

I like the way this shot turned out, but just outside of the frame is a tall apartment building. Whether we see an urban or natural environment is sometimes how we frame things.

Nature, of the submarine sort, collided with this New Zealand cafe; a lucky, unposed shot! The next few seconds have been censored

I love this photo. The hardness of the street sign against the beauty of the tulips. Vote for me!

I went to the Urban Nature Exhibit and remembered this photo I took in 2007 that I think is a fun example of nature against a urban setting.

This video is absolutely amazing and takes graffiti street art to a whole new level. I wonder how long this took to create.  It made me think of the wonderful graffiti street art at the Urban Nature exhibit.

This was an interesting piece personally, because I spent my college career at Oregon State University studying botany. I also painted graffiti in my spare time during school- so I really enjoyed this one. It caught me off-guard, seeing this piece during a peaceful walk through the gardens brought back 1,000 memories from another time.

I enjoyed how seamlessly all the artists’ paintings fit into the landscape of the Botanic Gardens.
The foliage appears to be springing from the earth in Delton Demarest’s Gaia’s Children.

Took the family to the Gardens and took the sights and smells of the Gardens. Who doesn’t like Spring and the smell of the blooming trees

I took this picture downtown in Denver on Friday. I love the beauty of the tree and sky against the building. Originally, I was sad the building made it in the picture…but I kind of like it now.
