A Rainbow of Color at the Monastery Gardens

As promised in my previous post, I have some close-ups shots of the flowers in the St Anthony's Franciscan Monastery gardens. The day I visited, many different types of flowers were in bloom in a variety of colors and it was just beginning to sprinkle. I took a lot of shots, trying to capture the flowers for you, before the storm arrived. I hope you enjoy these photographs. My favorite is the photo of the peonies. Do you have a favorite?

Your photos are really nice! Can I ask you what kind of camera you use? I have an old point and shoot Kodak, and am currently looking for a new one. Thanks!

Hi- I used a Nikon D40. You can see it in the sidebar of my other blog: http://tinyurl.com/owl7btk

I use the Nikkor 18-55 mm lens which comes with the body of the camera, as well as a Nikon 55-200 zoom lens.

The photos in this post were taken with the 18-55 mm lens.

Good luck!

It has been a very hot summer everywhere. From what I have been told it is normal to get 100 plus days from the months here from  May to Oct...
