Floriade 2007, Canberra

Our holiday in Canberra

September 2007

The beds of tulips in full bloom at Floriade in Canberra this year seemed to stretch on for ages. It was almost a case of sensory overload, with wave after wave of colour laid out in enormous beds in front of us. Choosing which way to look and what to aim the camera at was a major challenge.

Floriade in Canberra is an annual floral display in September and October.

I enjoyed the challenge of taking dozens of photos of flowers in a short space of time during our visit the Floriade in Canberra earlier this year.

I tried to capture to overall scope, colour and extensiveness of the display in some photos, while concentrating on individual blooms in other photos. I am particularly pleased with the shot shown above with the sunlight coming through the petals giving it a special glow.

We spent a whole afternoon wandering around the displays of beautiful flowers at Floriade in Canberra during our holiday there earlier this year. I would thoroughly recommend this festival of flowers to anyone who is planning a holiday there at that time of the year. The festival runs for four weeks in September and October every year.

And don’t forget to take your camera.

When we were in Canberra in September of this year I went a little crazy with my camera. The flower displays were so colourful and so extensive that I just had to record all that colour and beauty on my camera so I could share the experience with family and friends as well as readers of my blog.

Enjoy.

There will be more photos to come in the next few days.
