Peonies 2



When I visited the New York Botanical Gardens earlier this spring 
I noticed that they had a large collection of peonies. 
Peonies are such showy flowers they are lots of fun to look at and photograph. 
The double variety has the most interesting shapes,
so they are right up there with magnolias on my list of favorites. 
But the other kinds are lovely too. 
They remind me of oversized poppies. 
On a breezy day their petals blow in the wind,
which adds an extra degree of difficulty to photographing them. 
But it's worth the effort.
Here's a previous blog...
Cheers!
