Springtime Flowers

I have been wanting to get out to a local treasure in Wichita, Botanica, for a few weeks now. It's part of being bitten by the flower and plant bug lately.   Last Sunday, my family headed out for breakfast and for a walk among the gardens. I did lots and lots of picture taking.  The peonies and roses were gorgeous and it was a perfect day for a leisurely stroll. I think we may end up getting a membership because it was just such a nice time.  I can see myself going a lot on my own as well.  (It is also so much nicer to walk around and carry 80 pounds less on my body).

I had been wanting to play around with a new camera lense that I received as a gift from my husband for Christmas. And also wanted to just practice using the camera more.

I got some shots that I am pretty happy with.  I've saved back my favorites for posts in the future and look forward to sharing those with you soon.
