Butchart Gardens — Maple Leaves on Water
___
The spectacularly beautiful Butchart Gardens in Victoria, B.C. has many gorgeous flower gardens, but I gravitated toward the serenity of its many trees as these images show from a trip there a few years ago.

Gorgeous photography, thank you!
Thanks.
Classic beauty! Thanks for sharing.
God Bless,

Don, thanks.
Any photography suggestions you wish to share?
Oh, Don, thanks for asking but I’m a decent amateur photographer at best. Good lighting and subject matter helps and then taking time to compose the shot. You’ve got some excellent images on your site, which are good examples of those things.
Thanks again!
Don
I love your photography very much!!! It’s beautiful, it’s interesting and very colorful! And the third picture took away my breath!
You are a great photographer!!!!
Kaya, thanks for your kind comments. I don’t think they measure up to the wonderful images of yours that I’ve seen, so I genuinely appreciate your comment.
What a beautiful place to visit in the fall! Love all the gnarly limbs…
Thanks for visiting my blog-you were a real encouragement!
Karen, thanks. I really like your photograph and artwork.
A long tailed green moth, like that in your picture perched on my daughter’s screen last night. It may still be there. Why did you choose to use that picture?
Those are some beautiful photos, such lovely colours!
Evie, thanks.
