I’m delighted to say that my health is restored. After spending so much time indoors recently I was waiting for a sunny day during this snowiest of Februaries in Denver and when the partially sunny day arrived last Friday, I grabbed my camera and made my way to the Denver Botanic Garden. This was my first trip to the garden in the winter and I wanted to see the array of orchids displayed indoors by the Denver Orchid Society. They were nice, but not quite what I wanted to capture. I had limited time so I went for a quick walk through the deserted outdoor garden. I was running out of time and my battery was almost gone, when I captured today’s image.
I’ve photographed these fountains before, but without the beautiful greenery and flowers of spring , summer, and fall in bloom, I found them more beautiful than ever in their winter surround. There is most certainly beautiful life in every season. On my first post 60th birthday today, I certainly experienced that with the help of family and friends in my own garden. What beauty is showing up in your season?

Happy Birthday dear friend. I remember celebrating your 50th birthday and that was such fun and a great honor to meet all of your other friends. May God bless you with good health and a keen eye for many years to come dear young lady. xo
IBK, my first visit to your blog. Love the winter garden image. I don’t really like cold, but it invites me to sit down and stay awhile. Happy birthday and my prayer for many more seasons that find you treking w/ camera in hand. Blessings.
IBK, I trust you had a Happy Birthday celebration, shared with wonderful friends. I am truly enjoying your postings and the outstanding images you continue to capture. I so enjoy these two icy sentinels guarding the botanical gardens–until Spring arrives. Delighted that you are feeling better. Blessings, T
