{St. Augustine, FL}

I visited St. Augustine earlier this year and after realizing today that I never posted any of the photographs that were taken, I delved into my archives.  Here are some of my favorites!




 Our Lady of La Leche Shrine




 





 The old brick paved roads of St. Augustine!

The lighthouse illuminated at night during the Ghost Tour!

Spiral staircase leading to the top! 


 So many beautiful trees around town!

Colorado {Part Five}




Last but not least, DENVER!  I was pleasantly overwhelmed by how many things there were to do in Colorado and of course, when there are exciting things to do, there are many pictures to be taken! It was a nice change of pace to visit the Denver Botanic Gardens and take some beautifully vibrant images of the vegetation!



I have never seen so many bees in one location!  Now, under normal circumstances, I would have been terrified, however, these were the most calm and pleasant bees I have ever encountered.  I suppose I would be calm too if I were a bee in "heaven"! 
    








 

Out of all the beautiful, bright colors at the gardens, the simplicity of these two photos are extremely striking! 



The water lilies were some of my favorites!



These little guys were interesting...they only liked the yellow flowers!



  















This bright pink "fluff ball" is really the most unique flower I've ever seen!  It appears as though it would be sharp and pointy, but it was really as soft as feathers!  

It only took  me going all the way to Colorado take a picture of palm trees that I am surrounded by each and everyday in Florida!



Below are some images from Downtown Denver:
Beauty in places you may not expect...at least in my eyes!














I love my clouds! (nearly as much as I love photographing shoes)
