I tend to go for macros of a single flower head when photographing flowers, but I just loved the colours that I saw in this more distant view of white Zinnias and purple Ageratum. The Calgary Zoo garden was still bright and colorful a few days ago, though some of the individual flowers were beginning to show their age. Was out of the house today for six or seven hours, botanizing a great area. It was the Colpitts Ranch, west of the city. Joe, a very interesting and interested man, showed us around and took us through wooded areas, wet areas and meadows, pointing out everything of interest. Not the best time of year to do this, especially as the plants were mostly over and everywhere was much too dry for fungi, but we enjoyed ourselves and felt very fortunate to be allowed to do this. Thanks so much, Joe!
